[QUOTE="DDD, post: 608309, member: 35"] Obviously it is entirely your choice but since you asked for input, lol, I would likely expect my difficult child to "prove" that my trust is earned. Yes, I realize that four houses is minimal but on the other hand it sounds like he is a dare devil who "might" want melodrama more than the permission needed to walk somewhere alone. I've never raised an ADHD child who yearned for police attention etc. Of the three ADHD kids I raised one would have been allowed that freedom and more, the 2nd one I would (and did) stand on the sidewalk and watch to see if he went straight to the friends house...the 3rd one I shadowed until I felt confident. I tend to be cautious. Good luck. DDD [/QUOTE]
