My 2 year old son refuses to wear a diaper? Whenever I put a diaper on him he rips it off and screams when I try to put the diaper back on him?

I've tried potty training him but he doesn't want to use the toilet. He hates wearing diapers but I can't have him peeing all over the house or having wet pants.

What can I do when my stubborn 2 year old refuses to wear a diaper and keeps removing his diaper?

If your toddler is refusing to wear the diaper and keep the diaper on you might have to put him in some pajamas that make it hard for him to take off and makes it hard for him to remove his diaper.

If he can't get at the diaper then it can't remove it.

There's toddler pajamas that are called the little keep sleeper. The little keeper sleepers were made to stop removal of toddlers diapers.

You will have to be stern with him and tell him that if he doesn't want to use the toilet then he must wear the diaper.

Since he doesn't like diapers then he might eventually want to use the toilet if you keep at taking him to the toilet even if he screams and has a fit.

If you really want to potty train your son then you should leave the diaper off and put him in underwear and deal with the cleanup.

If he pees or poops in underwear he may not like the feeling of being wet or having poop in his underwear and decide that using the toilet will be better.
