Welcome to Ollivander's

Ollivanders

The wand chooses the wizard, Mr. Potter, it is not always clear why. I think it is clear, however, that we can expect great things from you. After all, He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named did great things--terrible! yes, but great.

Les Infantes Miserables

The following exerpt is from a non-profit organization (diaperfreebaby.org)that claims babies have an inborn pooping awareness and do not like being unclean, and they promote potty training or "Elimination Communication" as early as 6 weeks.

**SAFETY NOTE: Please remember that the safety of your baby is of primary concern. Therefore, the baby should always be given appropriate support for her age and development. A younger baby will need more head and neck support and an older baby will need support while sitting. Common sense should be used at all times, and baby should never be held over an unsafe location (such as a portapotty).**

"You might have noticed that your baby pees 5 minutes after nursing, or grunts just before he poops."


"Cue sounds are very useful. Most parents use a watery sound such as "pssh" but others rely on a word or phrase such as "go potty."



"You may easily substitute (or add) a gestural sign such as the American Sign Language sign for toilet."





Well, it makes sense, and I suppose you would save alot on Huggies, and...the babies seem to really enjoy it, and I guess no diaper rash. Please tell me if someone tries to attempt "Elimination Communication".

I think society's demands for conservation dictate that every baby-having person should try this method at least once. However, without soiled diapers, what will McDonald's use to make their hamburgers?

In that last photo, that baby looks an awful lot like Vern Troyer. Coincidence?... I think not.
