How is the best way to toilet train a boy? Sitting or standing?

Our little guy is 2 1/2 and finally showing signs he is ready to be toilet trained.

Do you teach little boys to stand or sit?

Would value all opinions!

Thanks

Standing, actually I never really thought about it. He watched his dad pee and did it exactly the same, so thats the way he did it! I don't think I know anyone who trained a boy sitting down...

LOL Lulu, I trained Lindsay sitting down first, and then he stood to wee once he was confident with the whole thing. I figured that once he could control his urge to go, he wouldn't leave it till the last minute when he was busting and therefore his aim would be more controlled too

Wish this post came earlier then! He pees everywhere.......but then again he sometimes waits till the last minute ggrrrrr.

We did sitting with both kids, and Kameron still sat till he started school. Lachlan was standing from as soon as he could reach. We will do sitting as well with Ashton.

Love

I have trained all the boys sitting down first and they eventually go to stand up wees..
