3 stars because she's rather sanctimonious.

Seems like mostly solid advice, but the "lol dads" tone gets a little grating.

Another how to book, that while it sounds great in theory, just did not work for us in practice

Crass and lacking any tact whatsoever. A little annoying how she addressed the book to moms and spoke as if it would be a huge accomplishment for a dad to be just a little supportive (even if she gave a small pat on the back to any dads who are actually involved in the process). But the method was solid and I can't argue with that. 3.5 stars rounded up for effectiveness.

There is a lot of good direction in here, but woah there is a ton of fear-mongering. In retrospect, I should have waited.

2.5 stars. 4 stars for the actual method itself and the clear steps. 1 star for the judgmental BS, wacky theories about child behaviour, and the cultlike "if it's not working, it's not the method - it's YOU." We did Oh Crap for 5 days and it was clear my 2-year-old had learned what the potty was for and how to recognize when she needed to pee. However, she was still frequently choosing to pee everywhere and it was NOT A FUN TIME. Switched to having her in diapers and taking them off when she says she needs to pee and she has been doing more and more in the potty every day with way less stress...

I feel the same as many reviewers here…amazing method for potty training, great easy to follow steps for each of the phases of training, my 26-month-old did awesome with it and has very few accidents now in so so happy with the results!! The book makes it very easy to look up any common issues and find answers and great things to try. I did find myself a little annoyed by the author’s writing style and attitude about her own opinions and methods, but was able to look past it and found myself loving having a potty trained toddler enough to not mind!
