The World's First Un-potty Trained 40 Year Old.

I am convinced I will never get this boy of mine out of diapers.
We went from sitting on the potty for M&M's and singing potty mantras to losing any and all interest in the potty and Kadyn sitting in a poopy diaper until pee has soaked his shorts and is literally running down his legs like he isn't wearing a diaper at all. Pleasant, isn't it?
How can I potty train him if he doesn't care AT ALL?!?!?
I am so frustrated. Nothing works. He simply does not care.
We sit on the potty for 15 minutes. Nothing. He steps in the bath and 30 seconds later he is peeing. I bring it to his attention day after day after day after day, but nothing changes. I ask him to tell me when he's peed or pooped, he says he will but he doesn't. Or he tells me he's pooped when he hasn't. He will sit in a dirty diaper for hours if I let him. 

He just does not care. My main motivation is preschool in the fall. He can't go if he's not potty trained and my usual optimistic self does not think this will happen in the next 2 months - especially since a new family member will be arriving around the same time. I give up.
If Kadyn is on potty training strike, so am I. Potty Gods, I have lost all faith in you.
