i'm raising my 3 yr old niece since my sister recently passed away, she won't sleep in her own bed and she wo'nt cooperate with potty training, could this be from the trauma of losing her mom? ↓

How long has it been since your sister passed? Is the little girl's dad anywhere at all in the picture?

I would imagine losing a parent at that age would be very difficult to process. It would be worth talking with a child psychologist and getting advice on how to maybe deal with the situation best.

Thanks you fo taking a little girl who needs someone to care for her, even though it isn't an easy situation right now. ↑
