How do you potty train?

It has begun.  Potty training with Gideon.  I have a feeling we will be in this for a long time.  I am not encouraged at his lack of enthusiasm or bribeability (if that's even a word).  However, I am able to get him to sit on the potty for long amounts of time.  And have had success with him actually going #1 on the potty, so we press on.

The kids can often be found reading to him.  And he is often sitting on the potty in front of the TV.  Neither scenario works for him. . .see below for his trigger.

All alone in the closet - then he will go.

And he must be all alone, NOT playing peek-a-boo with Nora.  Even if it is so cute.
