Potty Training a Boy Who Is Afraid

My just turned 3 son is afraid of going on the potty. I have tried two differant sets he would take is diaper off and sit on them. He tells me when he went in his diaper and that he wants to get changed. But every time I mention going on the potty he tells me no. My husband tries to take him into the bathroom to watch and he does for a moment and then tells my husband that it is to scary. But to tell you the truth I would really like to get him out of the diapers. Anyone have any suggestions or went through the same thing?

When to Stop Potty Training Treats?

The first week was pretty tough, but exactly one week after we first started, it clicked for him and he has been using the potty ever since. We still give him two gummie bears EVERYTIME he goes pee or poop. Before this, he had never had candy. We don't do much sugar at home so I'm concerned about his teeth. Should I be?
