I so appreciate your posts. I have a 5 year old granddaughter who ran out of a restaurant with our large family seated around. Out of nowhere she bolted out the door and ran right into the street. We were all so relieved that even though it was in the center of our small city, no car was going by at that moment. I am learning something new with each of your posts, thank you so much.
Your very welcome 🙏. Thanks for watching and sharing. ❤️❤️❤️
Isn't it great that despite all the horrendous things that are going on throughout the world, there are some great people out there, far more than we think! I see how emotional you are whilst telling the story! Greetings from 🇬🇧
Thank you! I bet there's a lot more good happening in the world than we realize. It seems like the news spends most of their time with the negative. It's too bad. and thanks for letting us know where you're from! We love to see where our viewers are coming from.
Oh my goodness, what a nightmare for you guys. Thank you for educating other parents. I will definitely be that good neighbor. Your videos are saving lives!
Thank you so much!!❤️❤️❤️
Fantastic video and such helpful time and advise. Many years ago I had a friend who’s 4 year old had ADHD, he regularly escaped, he was able to get through most locks, even really high up ones that his family had put on the front door, he’d escape mostly at night, we tired all kinds of things but in the end my friend had to lock his bedroom door from the outside at night, she felt awful about it, it sounded so drastic, but I kept reassuring her she was doing the right thing. He had no sense of danger and they lived on a main road. She would have been so comforted by what you shared to know she wasn’t alone, however this little boy is now a young man and doing much better. I’m so glad you found Ezra and he was safe. Bless you.
Thank you for sharing! I truly hope this does help others who are in similar situations.
Yep. I had to put an alarm on my autistic children's bedroom doors so we were woken up in the night. It felt terrible, but I needed them to be safe. We had to lock the fridge and cabinets too or they would eat everything planned for future meals! 😢
You know what it’s like! Thanks for sharing ❤️
@@7Aheadfamily thank you for your platform talking about it! ❤️
Your welcome! ❤️😊❤️
Both my older brother and I escaped the house a lot when we were little except when I ran away I was usually heading for a playground and my running away stopped when I was quite young, I don’t know if my brother had a location a lot of the time but he would often run away even when he was a teenager. His autism is way more severe than mine.
Wow, yeah that is scary for parents.
Glad he was found and kept safe and sound
Yes! So glad.
To call and the difference...and Napoleon laugh was awesome
😊
I AM A NEW FAN!!
Glide lock has helped us so much with our daughter. Her first escape happened the first week of this summer and it was very similar to your sweet boy Ezra’s escape…involving great neighbors and super cops!! Gone 10 minutes and I was beside myself. It helps to have a team around you and I learned so much on how to prevent it or prepare for it going forward. Our kiddos are smart and I learn from my sweet Addison daily. Glide lock seemed very universal and helpful for my husband and I because we are able to access the lock on BOTH sides of the door. Thank you for this video because I have NOW taken on ur second tip and registered my daughter with our local police station. Keep being the inspiration we all need as parents and encouraging us to seek help and have comfort in knowing that we aren’t alone.
Thank you so much for watching and commenting ❤️. We will have to look in to glide locks. 😊 thank you for sharing ❤️
Super helpful video, thank you!!
Of course!🩵🩵 So glad it was helpful!🩷🩷
Great information!! Hopefully we can all reach out to help someone when it’s needed!
I hope so too!
I forget where I saw this online but I read in a blog a while back that if a parent has a child who is on the spectrum and not really toilet trained yet but is far enough along training-wise to go to a particular room to “do his (or her) thing” (as it were) that some parents find it helpful to put a webcam (or a security camera) of some kind in that room so that the parent can give him or her enough privacy to do what needs to be done while also making sure that he or she does not wander off during that time.
Thank you for sharing!❤❤❤
Thanks for sharing the good tips. 👍
You bet!
Thanks for watching and commenting 💕
Ive never eloped im older but when im having a bad spell with bpd and the sucidal ideation i dont know whethever the proble autism is part of it ir not i myst empathise i DONT go out at early hours of morning but get urge to so i make sure ive had all ny night meds and that helps but when i had ideation episodes before covid id walk up to our 24 hour cottage hospital type place at 2am or3am and were bemused when people said thats dangerous there could be anyone about id say well its quicker than waiting for a taxi
I'm so glad that you have habits in place that help you. That must be difficult. And I hate waiting for a taxi too.
Awww good video
Thank you!
Kallie has escaped several times. The last time she went to the neighbors and knocked on the door. She also got out in the middle of the night at a hotel. The upper safety lock was broken. She is definitely a Houdini.
Wow, it sounds like it. 😊 thank you for sharing!
Omg im early but i love your vids❤❤🎉🎉
Thank you!!!
My parents had chains on the doors that were higher than I could reach (and higher than my sister could reach to keep us from wandering off when we were growing up back in the 1980s. It wasn’t foolproof but it worked pretty well.
Thank you for sharing!❤❤❤
Oh wow i would be 😱 . Glad he was ok. I'm scared for emmalina to do that . I actually have gates by doors and locks on all outer doors but I keep the locks higher so she can't reach . Emmalina is able to figure out how to get out of places she shouldn't . They are like houdini
Yes, they are. 😊 Sounds like you have a pretty good set up right now, but yeah it gets tougher as they get older. ❤️
Thank you . I always learn as a I go with her
❤️❤️❤️
My parents didn’t talk to the neighbors all that much because they thought that my sister and I acted in ways that were embarrassing to them and (as they put it) “people will talk”.
One day when one of my neighbor’s kids wandered/eloped during the toddler years (before age four, I think) my mother actually met one of the neighbors because he wandered into either my parents’s yard or the woods behind our house. It was either Summer or Fall and he just had a Pampers diaper on. Apparently his mother fell asleep just after changing him and turning on the TV.
I don’t actually know if he’s autistic but he might be because even at age eight or nine (second or third grade) he was only able to talk enough for basic communication and he finished his daytime toilet training at age nine when he was in third grade shortly before going into fourth grade. This was back in the 1980s. He was in regular classes and he was able to get by but just barely. I remember that he was about a C or D student in terms of what his letter grade would have been if my Elementary School used letter grades.
My mother was always on the lookout for him when she was outside raking the leaves and doing other chores because he would often wander either into our yard or into the woods behind our house. For some reason his mother didn’t worry because we lived in a fairly quiet neighborhood and he eventually either came back on his own or someone always brought him back like my mother did. My mother probably had to bring him back to his mother’s house at least three or four times (at least two of those times were when he was a toddler, the rest were when he was about five, six or seven).
Thank you for sharing!❤❤❤
Eloping is really scary, glad that Ezra was found safe and sound, as an austistic person, I don't really like eloping since I know how scary it is, I did eloping once and I'm grateful that I was found and I never want to do that again
Thank you for sharing. I’m glad that you are able to see the danger and choose to be safe.
When I learned my full name and address I was in kindergarten at age five just before turning six. From what I remember my neighbor’s kid who had a tendency to wander off was more like seven when he could do this. In terms of where he was verbally at that point in time he was more verbal than Ezra is (he knew maybe a dozen or maybe two dozen words by that point) but less verbal than Simon most of the time.
Thank you for sharing!❤❤❤
Gracias por la información, es de suma importancia lakear las ventas siempre puertas, y siempre una lámpara a el no le gusta la oscuridad saludos ❤❤❤ y siempre que salgamos algun lugar que tus ojos no lo pierdan de vista eso es importante.
🙏 Thank you 🙏
When I was in kindergarten back in 1981 to 1982 it was common for the kids in my class to have a name tag saying something like “Hello my name is (full name goes here) I am a kindergarten student at (name of school goes here).
Thank you for sharing!❤❤❤
My sister also liked the excitement of escaping when she was around Ezra’s age (and she would often laugh/giggle when she escaped). That is why on trips to the mall and to the grocery store she needed to be on the late 1970s version of a toddler leash (which was pretty much like a bracelet or an arm band) more often than I needed to be.
Apparently this is not always a function of a specific autism level because I was level two growing up (I’m currently level one.) and yet my sister (who has always been level one) needed a toddler leash more often than I did because she had more of a tendency to wander off. She may still have more of a tendency in this direction than I realize but since she no longer acts on it I don’t actually know.
By the way, while I didn’t try wander off or or bolt all that often after the toddler years I remember quite a bit about being drawn to the sounds of running water and the sound of wind blowing through the trees especially in the woods behind my parents house (which sometimes sounded sort of like running water (especially during the Fall months when the leaves were coming off of the Maple or Oak trees).
I didn’t need a toddler leash all that often but if I was in a new place with the sound of running water or a lot of traffic (which could also sort of sound like the sound of running water or like white noise) I would sometimes be drawn to that and need one from time to time.
Thank you for sharing!❤❤❤
Have you tried deep pressure massage for aur kids especially Ezra? Massage with your bare hands or with a blanket some people use weighted blankets
Not specifically. But we do roughhouse with them. ❤️
I saw somewhere temporary tattoos that you could get made up with like your mobile number or something, that you could put on your child if you went somewhere, like an amusement park, or anywhere that you could get separated.
That is a really good idea. Thank you
If Ezra always heads uphill and towards open spaces, maybe he's looking for majestic mountaintop views.
Right! 😊
To me, I thought the truth is also used for empathy, and calm things down. I think telling the truth is sometimes I need to be honest, as attention. Not hurting anyone's feelings or else. I was never into political agendas. Since I'm apolitical and apathetic to fit into politics. I consider myself as a volunteer and cooperative person. I refuse to hate or lash out at any person, any being. That would be something I would be regretting in my life. I'm a snowflake, who is sensitive, emotional, and cannot argue against other peoples opinions. I am still a youngster in my heart and mindset to hate someone. The truth I believe, it was for ending this arguing, stop putting others be confused, scared, and bickering with one another. To make people look put their own differences aside. Cooperative, empathize, and be there for each other. Sometimes, I find telling the truth as no more argument, bickering with each other, and as a last defense to empathize, peace, and look out for each other. That's how I view telling the truth.
Thank you for sharing!
Yes. I can defend myself. I don't want to be pinned down to the ground. If I can challenge a thief, criminal, or stalker. I will try to defend if peaceful resolutions fail. I would try my best to fight back, and shoo them away. If I fail at challenging or defeat a stalker, I will do my best to hide away, making sure the stalker doesn't catch me off guard. If I got caught, I will do my best to run, run away fast as I can. Since I feel and behave like a kid. The mindset of a child and baby who views the world as childish escapism, rose tinted, shy, timid, curiosity, creativity, I complain a bit, sometimes a crybaby, I panic at times, have spatial awareness, and can't handle too much force and pressure.
Thank you so much for sharing. ❤️❤️
If I got stalked. And failed to defeat or shoo away against a thief, robber, or stalker. By being pinned down to the ground. As in getting stomped down very slowly and very soft. I am sensitive to very soft attacks. I can handle hits like that. I do have bravery yet, I feel scared as well. In my child and babylike mindset.
Thank you so much for sharing. ❤️
Could you also get temporary tattoo of their info and put it on them so if somone find them they know who to call and who they are?
That’s an idea! Especially if we were traveling and just wanted to be extra careful. Thanks
Is eloping a common autistic behavior?
Yes. It's common for an Autistic child to wander or bolt away from a safe place. Currently, 49% of Autistic people will Elope.
TBH, I'm not sure it's not a common behavior of human children in general, but non-verbal autistic children can't announce where they want to go, can't answer "where have you been, young man?", and it's harder to explain to them why they shouldn't just leave whenever they want (plus, if they're emotionally disregulated they may just bolt in panic).
So true! Thank you for sharing ❤️
My kid just started to eloping...mynfather found himin the backyard on the gates ...he wants to run... He broke the locks from window... I dont.not wath to don
That can be very scary. Hope you find ways to keep him close.
This is so stressful. My child did this last weekend. I'm interested innconnecting to a community of other parents if u know of one
Love to have you join us in our ASD club…

You have to have a fence around trampolines? I have never heard of that before.
It’s for insurance policies a legally if a child in the neighborhood gets hurt on a trampoline that doesn’t have a fence around it then the owners of the trampoline are responsible. A lot of people don’t realize that. But it has been a big issue.
7 Ahead - What will ezra's middle & high school plans be will he still have ABA therapy or he'll go to special education ?
That depends on him. Hopefully he will be able to tell us what he wants to do and we would love it if he chose. I can see him going to school soon after we get him potty trained.
@@7Aheadfamily will he be in special education his entire school life & afterwards ?
Not sure. We hope he can progress enough to go to regular school and college.
@@7Aheadfamily I hope so too
that'l be so neat to see what he wants to learn and what he's interested in.
7 ahead family hey 👋 I want to meet you
That will be awesome! We will have to do a meet and greet one of these days. 😊
@@7Aheadfamily I can’t wait to meet your kids
That'll be fun
Discretia este modul in care ei au o copilarie la fel de normala si calduroasa

Vezi ce simplu este raspunsul si cei care creaza panica pentru manipulare il.stiu,specia ajunge sa te forteze atat de tare incat te omoara...
Este normala reactia sa vrei ajutor de la campuri deschise,paduri si zone intinse fara oameni...senzatia si criza de senzatii alchimice in familii,toate hartuite....de parca nu aveam destule probleme...
Unde este magia libertatii Jupiteriene,incepitul vietii noastre printre alte specii,in natura?
Cui ii trebuie paralela inafara naturii?
La asa zisul covid m-au doborat si pe mine....irationalul sinucigas...al speciei...
I’m not sure I understand. 👍
I don’t know what would help besides maybe putting him in the bed with toys if anyone can’t keep an eye on him that’s my best suggestion
Good idea.❤️
@@7Aheadfamily not to be rude just trying to keep him safe and that would be the only way really I think
Thank you! We love ideas and suggestions ❤️
