  1. The way would I feel when changing a child’s diaper is discomfort. I wouldn’t feel too great changing a child’s diaper especially if I don’t know the child, and there is a relationship bond between us. I feel if it was my siblings when they were babies then I wouldn’t feel uncomfortable because I know them. I never had the experience when it comes to changing a child’s diaper, but from what I have seen in my field experience, I have seen the teacher have conversations with the child and explain the rationale as to why the teacher is changing the diaper for that child.
  2. What I would feel if a child had a toilet accident is I would let them know that accidents do happen and it is ok, just next time if you feel that you have the urge to go just stop what you are doing and go to the bathroom. I would let them it takes a few times before they can get the hang of it and accidents won’t happen as much. I would not yell at the child to make them feel that what they did was wrong or horrible but let them learn from the mistake with a more positive and calm approach.
  3. What I would teach the children about their bodies would be that you have the feeling that you need to release to listen to that feeling and go to the toliet.
