JEREMY Vine sparked a vicious mum-shaming row with a toilet training debate today.
The Channel 5 show never shies away from controversial topics or opinions.
Todays episode was no different, with Jeremy, 57, and the panel discussing a story about a woman whose six-year-old child who wasn't toilet trained.
It prompted a debate about the right age to toilet train a child, especially in relation to kids starting school at the age of four.
Viewers immediately took to Twitter to share their opinions, and they were mixed to say the least.
I want to help young primary pupils with their warring parents
One wrote: "Not toilet trained at 6? F*** me.. I had mastered p***ing over the toilet door at 4."
Another added: "My friend has a 5 year old who can't use a toilet alone. She is the fault not the child."
A third tweeted: "If children are entering education still in nappies and with no basic language skills, then it is the fault of lazy incompetent parenting."
Meanwhile a fourth raged: "What's wrong with these parents ?? Why aren't their children potty trained or can speak ?? Unless they have a diagnosed condition it's lazy stupid parenting."
But another argued: "I'm offended by some of the suggestions that it's parents fault, my son was born during the pandemic and has been waiting for a salt assessment for 18 months because he doesn't talk and fear he may have autism."
A fellow viewer wrote: "It's not the age it's the child and their development.
"Some children are very ready for school at 3 years of age... stop limiting child development by age!! Parents & guardians can do more particularly in toilet training. Smaller classes are needed and a better system."
