[QUOTE="Liahona, post: 479140"] Welcome. Their good days probably don't have anything to do with you. Just like their bad days don't have anything to do with you. Sounds like they do need to be evaluated. After you find out what is going on you can get on the right track with how to help them (and you.) Have their peers at school started to comment about the lack of hygiene? Do the sons care about that? That does sound like a sensory issue. And OTs work with sensory issues. difficult child 1 doesn't look before cross the street either. We have worked on that one for years. I've had to walk him to school every day (mostly dragging the other kids behind me, literally). And then walk him back home after school. This is his first year of walking himself to school. He is 11 and we just live 2 blocks away from the school. Do you call the police when they run away? I'm thinking of protecting you with this. Others aren't going to understand about them running from you. They'll be like the school teacher. Plus, if the police do happen to see them they could pick them up and bring them home. You could go to the station before this comes up again and talk to someone. Explain that you are getting them evaluated for mental health reasons and they have a history of running away. Would the teacher keep them in the classroom until you could pick them up? At least if they run away in front of the teacher you'll have a witness of their behavior. What does their therapist recommend? :hugs: [/QUOTE]
