How Do You Know When Your Child Is Ready for Bathroom Independence?

One of the big milestones in parenting is figuring out when your child is ready to use the bathroom on their own. I remember the first time my little one insisted on closing the door and doing everything solo—it was a mix of pride and worry! Every child is different, and while some are eager for independence early on, others need a bit more time and reassurance. I found that watching for signs like confidence, following routines, and being able to ask for help made the transition smoother. It’s not just about age, but about readiness and comfort.
