[QUOTE="trinityroyal, post: 287113, member: 3907"] I've been very lucky with this one... difficult child's desire to wander has always been tempered by his timidity. He would take his phone with him and call every 30 seconds or so. "Mom, I'm in the bread aisle now, where are you?" "Okay, now I'm in the aisle with all the soup and beans. Where are you?" (And this was at 16) Little easy child has been pretty good so far. and tends to stick very close. The rule is that he either has to be touching the cart, husband or me when we're out shopping, and he likes to ride on the end of the shopping cart so he tends to stick very close. I, on the other hand, was a wanderer. I would just saunter away and go exploring. Thinking back, difficult child-mom never seemed to worry or get upset with me when I'd eventually find her. A simple "Oh, THERE you are.", and we'd continue with whatever we were doing. The only time I raised a panic was when I was about 3 years old. I wandered away and climbed into one of those storage lockers they used to have in all the malls. You know, the kind where you put in a dime to get the key out? I don't have the foggiest notion of how long I was in there, but when I got tired of my cozy little cave and decided to climb back out, the police were EVERYWHERE. [/QUOTE]
