Good for the boy’s, but why exactly is the little girls autism relevant?

Remember the dog last week that saved the autistic kid after being lost for 40 minutes?

Read my post.

Your antennas are up and operational. Good thinking.

Some Autistic children have a tendency to take off. The clinical term is elopement, but they often sneak out of even an attentive parent’s control. I have a daughter with autism and when she was 5 she figured out how to scale the fence in the back yard. It was 6 feet tall. She also doesn’t have an adequate fear of hazards. It is all mitigated with alarms on doors, locked gates, etc. Some parents put trackers on their kids.
