I was intrigued and a bit shocked to hear about such an institution yesterday. A friend of mine has a friend who is sending her DD there, who is 3. She is fully dry in the daytime (barring the odd accident) as are most of her playmates, but the nursery insist on them wearing nappies "just in case" they have an accident.
My DD's nursery insists on a change of clothing just in case of accidents, which always seems quite reasonable, but nappies? Doesn't this undermine the whole potty-training experience? I was astounded and told my friend that I wouldn't even consider sending my child to a nursery with such a bizarre and disempowering policy. I think she thought I was a bit nuts. Am I?

Why would a nursery insist that children of 3 who are potty trained, still wear nappies in the daytime?
