Potty training should not begin before a child is developmentally ready, as infants under 12 months lack the necessary bladder capacity and communication skills to signal when they need to use the bathroom; attempting potty training too early leads to frustration and potential punishment of coincidental successes, which is counterproductive to the training process.

Why Potty Training Too Early Can Backfire — A Pediatrician's WarningAdded:
One of the major ones is just having unrealistic expectations of your children. Right? So, having us trying to potty train a 6-month-old or a 9-month-old, that's unrealistic, honestly. The bladder capacity isn't there. It's not common that you see a 6-month-old that's able to vocalize or say what they're ready to go potty or pull down their pull-up or a diaper. And And what I've seen a lot of times is that parents will get frustrated when the child maybe seems to do it once or twice coincidentally, and then the child is punished. Please do not do that. That is not the right way to go about it.
