[QUOTE="Ktllc, post: 522193, member: 11847"] If it is such a huge trait of his personality, and potentially part of ADHD, it might not work to reason with him. But have you talked about stranger danger? (even if a small rural village appears safer than some other areas). Maybe be very clear about ALL the potential dangers for a 5 year old wandering alone. You obviously do not want to create unnecessary fears (not that it would even scare him!) but simply explain WHY you ask of him to follow your rules. I can't think of any titles on top of my head, but for sure you should be able to find a few children books on the topic. (oh I got one: Hansel and Gretel not obeying their mother and being caught by the witch. a lot of fairy tales might serve your purpose). Just an idea... if you haven't tried it already. [/QUOTE]
