this exactly.

asked for advice to get the ball rolling obv i know i cant force him to do it, but there has to be some tricks that people have tried on their kids to maybe start gettin ghim to think about it.

Quoting XxWhite_RosexX:" pun intended?  "

haha I didn't even think about it.

OP the only thing you can do is get him comfortable with the potty. We didn't do anything with DD. One day she just decided she wanted to go on the big people potty like mommy and daddy.

LOL. I had both kids in diapers...same size too! That was fun.

But there's nothing you really can do. You can't force them to do something that they don't want to do. I tried PTing my DS since about 18 months on (but would stop when he's clearly not having it) and he's now 3 1/2 and is finally fully PT since Aug or so of this year on. Some kids take their time. And that's ok.
You can buy books and such about potty training (like Elmo's potty book) and such and talk about the potty and have him sit there.

Get rid of diapers/pull ups & put him in underwear. You may have many accidents, but I think that is the best route. With my next child, I plan to purchase cloth training pants since they are similar to undies.

Im very lucky my aunt bought a years worth of diapers for my daughter so when i found that out we kept up with the potty training so that we didnt have to buy any so its been about 2 months and he is almost all the way there we have night accidents but i use pull ups at night in case. Also he climbs in bed with us in the middle of the night i really dont want piss all over my bed as the baby sleeps with us to after her 5 am feeding.

Seriously just be as patient as possible my DD is 3.5 almost 4 and I was pulling my hair out when is she gunna get back on the right track I had her almost potty trained at 1.5 but I went back to work and forget it but this last few days she ha been telling me she had to go we run to the bathroom and she peed I'm so happy she is finally doing it but 3.5years old ahhhhh I though she would never do it she even went when we were at Walmart yeasterday!
