Enough Is Enough

We have had our son potty trained since July of 2008...The problem is he WON'T poop on the potty, he still insists on a pullup. We have tried rewards, we have tried charts, encouragment, videos, books and even taking away the pullups until he just goes on the potty, but he will just go in the kitchen and poop on the floor or in his underwear.

Looking for Fun Videos, Cd's and Books to Buy for 4 and 2 Year Old Living Abroad

We live in Israel and speak English to our kids. However, the only English they really hear is from other adults, resulting in a pretty funny dialect (my son uses unfortunately a lot, for example). I need reccommendations for some fun videos, cd's and books, including some with kids talking to each other..any ideas?
