what a Chinese 2 year old knows that an American 2 year old may not
what do you think it is?
For like the first time in ages I'm actually watching abc news, the cliffhanger for tomorrows continuation of the china special is
"what a Chinese 2 year old knows that an American 2 year old may not"
I haven't a clue what it could, at 2 they are all so ... primitive ...  what could it possibly be?
Oh and don't bother googling it, all you'll get is a 2 year old in China is smoking  I really hope this isn't it.

Cross-Cultural Psychology studies showed that 2 year old Chinese children threw less tantrums than American children, and have better self control. That's what I read

I saw that, and honestly, I dont even care. Its ridiculous to pit TWO YEAR OLDS against each other. Who knows what, who does what, its ridiculous and that comparison doesnt even need to be made. They are TWO.

America is very advanced in the diaper department, imagine living in a place where you didn't have a dozen choices for diapers, maybe one choice, and maybe you were using cloth diapers and had no washing machine, wouldn't that sway you to beat your kid to potty train? I kid. I was potty trained before 1 year. My mom says she doesn't get what the big deal in American is, kids just went on the potty and that was it, there wasn't another choice.
I sometimes find the idea of diapers easier than dragging a 1 year old to a public toilet. So I may hold off a bit on it.
Which makes me think, this isn't what it is, because it doesn't show anything about progress in China. hmmm....

My friend adopted a 2 year old from China and she was NOT potty trained. Maybe the boys are, but there are so many girls who are not with families that I venture to say they are not all potty trained - not even close.

My mother said she used cloth diapers and washed them (no machine) and line-dried them. I was potty trained at 15 months.
