Ben is, well, being a little testing at the moment. Probably just because he's being a typical 3-year-old. He's generally pretty happy, but as soon as he has to do something that he doesn't particularly want to do (e.g. tidying up toys), he just says, matter-of-factly "I don't want to". And we usually have a tantrum in the process of getting him to do whatever it was. Toilet training isn't helping - Mel did up a chart for him, and got some stickers which he gets each time he does a wee or poo in the potty. Trouble is, he now just doesn't care whether he gets a sticker or not. We're really struggling to find anything to motivate him - whatever we try doesn't seem to work for more than about, oh, 2 minutes.
I guess that's a 3 year-old.

Have you tried chocolate. One person I know bought a packet of those chocolate coated sultanas, & they got a couple everytime they went to the potty.
