Help potty training an abuse victim?

Try telling her that big girls use the potty and that when she uses it she will be a big girl. If you dont want to try that try giving her pennies or dimes or quarters as a reward. As she starts to use the potty go with her and tell her everything is all right and nothing is going to go wrong, etc. Maybe if she has a teddy bear, let her bring it on the potty with her. As for throwing toys into the potty, cover the potty before she uses it and maybe to get her to sit down just pick her up swing her around and set her on it. Maybe if she still won't try maybe try to put her on the big toilet. I've never dealt with an abused child before but i sure hope this helps and sorry it was so long!!
