Russian Adoptees are said to be toilet trained as soon as they can sit up because as soon as they can do this they can certainly sit on a potty or a pot and go to the bathroom on their own. Of course, some of the children who can sit up on their own can’t stand on their own or walk by themselves but they can certainly scoot on their potty and play with the other children in the bathroom. It becomes more of a game to them than potty time.

We all know it is not the first time Russian adoptees have been “murdered at the hands of their adoptive parents” because it is always big news, especially in the adoption communities.
When adoptions go wrong they sometimes go very wrong because parents are just not prepared for the medical and emotional issues that come with international adoptees.
