When does a child supposed to start talking and done with toilet training?

It's important to remember that every child develops at their own pace. There are general guidelines, but there's a wide range of normal development. Here's a breakdown:

Talking:

* First words: Most children start saying their first few words around 12 months old.

* Putting words together: By 18 months, most children are starting to combine words into simple phrases (like "want milk").

* More complex sentences: By 2 years old, children are usually using 2-3 word sentences and are starting to understand and follow more complex instructions.

Toilet training:

* Signs of readiness: Around 18-24 months, children may start showing signs of readiness for toilet training, such as:

* Staying dry for longer periods.

* Showing an interest in the toilet or potty.

* Being able to follow simple instructions.

* Being able to pull their pants up and down.

* Successful training: Most children are successfully toilet trained by 3 years old, but some may take longer.

Important notes:

* Individual variations: There's a wide range of normal development, and some children may hit these milestones earlier or later.

* Early intervention: If you have concerns about your child's development, talk to your pediatrician. They can assess your child's progress and provide guidance.

* Don't compare: Every child is different, and comparing your child to others can be unhelpful and stressful. Focus on supporting your child's individual development.

Remember, patience and encouragement are key to both talking and toilet training. Celebrate your child's progress, no matter how small.
