Re: HELP! Traveling with child that isn't potty trained!

[quote Cappy4]Okay, so after booking our first family cruise, I come to find out that children that are NOT potty trained are not allowed into any of the pools with any type of training pants due to some kind of law. I have two children, one of which is an almost 3 year old boy that isn't potty trained...so what am I supposed to do with him while his sister is in the pool? Tell him, "sorry honey, your not allowed in the pool." Are they kidding me? I never heard of such a thing! I've been on many vacations with my kids and I've never been told that kids weren't allowed in the pools with training pants! I've already tried training him about a month ago and he's just not ready...and I don't know that he will be ready by May, that's when we leave for our trip! I never even thought to look into this because this has never been an issue for us before!

I never would have booked a cruise had a known this prior....anyone else come across this problem? I will start training my son again, but I can't MAKE him be trained by May! Any feedback would be greatly appreciated!

All may not be lost. Are you by any chance booked on the Freedom, Liberty or Independence of the Seas? If so, there is one pool that does allow non-potty trained children. I'll post a picture of it if you are on one of these three ships.
