We have tried to use the child leashes but she just breaks the clip or falls on her butt from pulling so hard, plus it's a pain at sixflags to put it on and off at every ride. Unfortunately she is over the weight limits of all the strollers I could afford(or it comes with an infant seat).any suggestions on what I can do.
Oh I just remembered one..having a green and red flashcard or item.Green means its safe. and red means it is not and you must stay with parent. So example is maybe a parking lot is red , and the park is a green. Also adjustable to their ability.
Social stories and a lot of over corrections like said above. My son it still doing it but that motto practice makes perfect I guess I heard works. There is a cute app on his iPad I download to my phone as well called running caution by touch autism. I find he is repeating it back to himself so that may help. Good luck. It is way scary right now for me that he is doing this u know it must be for you. I also saw online that there is some gps thing linked to your phone to track your child. Haven't gone there yet though. Just trying to teach the proper behavior.
Over correction/positive practice. When she runs away, go back to starting point and say something like" We do not run away. We stay with family." Our son still runs when excited but does it less. Sometimes in the check out line we hear him remind himself to stay with family. When asked he says "Mommy and PaPa are family"
I'll try that thanks. I was thinking of asking her developmental pediatricians about getting one through them. But I don't know how that works
