| The article
There's a video on there with a recording of the message. It does indeed sound like the book is saying what parents think it is. In case the url goes bad, here's the article: Originally posted by Local6.com I'm not sure if this is a joke or something went horribly wrong with the recording.

Sounds like someone is going to get fired, regardless of whether it was a joke or not. ...I never knew they had Sesame Street potty training books.  ...talking ones at that too. |

| wow, that's slightly disturbing. The video wouldn't play on my comp for some reason, but just reading from the article. I think someone is gonna get more than just fired. | |||

| I had to open the page in Internet Explorer for it to work. It's just a television news report of the story, but it has the sound clips of the book. | |||

| So your saying is that any kid who heard the recording will grow up to be a killer that doesnt know how to go potty? | |||

| I saw Steven Colbert talking about the book.
If you seriously threaten someone to do something they'll do it, and those pooper troopers will learn how to shat in a toilet. Every child needs some past life scarring so they know what the world is like....take a dump or you'll die. |

| Not to turn this into a dark discussion for Debate, but one of the leading reasons for child abuse are parents' frustatrations with their child not being potty-trained yet.
Really puts that whole "Who wants to die?" thing into perspective. Otherwise upon hearing that soundbyte on the news made me laugh my ass off. |

| That's very true, Rogue. My stepbrother for four years was severely abused by his mother. In court they came to the conclusion that she was frustrated with him not being potty-trained.
On another note, I was a huge sesame street nut when I was little and I can only imagine the trauma of hearing my favorite read fuzzy face asking me if I wanted to die. 0_0 |

| I heard about this at work, and wasn't sure about the validity of the allegation until I listened to the sound clip posted here. I think it sounds pretty convincing -- although, I'm thinking the makers will somehow say it only "sounds like" he's saying that, but actually saying something similar. | |||

| I was actually joking about the threatening your children and stuff, its not healthy for them but other than that, that books would make a good novelty item. |
