Poor Alyce! Poor you!<br /><br />My eldest kid wanders off ALL the time. He's just completley oblivious to all the things I flag up as 'potential dangers' because if something catches his eye, it's WHOOOSH and he's off. And he's FASTER THAN ME ALREADY. Walking in to a public place, I've lost count of the amount of times I've had to say, 'If you want to go and look at something, don't wander off, just ask me and we'll go and look together,' but still, at nearly 6 years old he is just away with the fairies.<br /><br />I sort of want him to get lost. You know? I mean, not lost where I've lost him, but rather HE'S lost ME... so I could follow at a safe distance until he realises that he's lost, so that he might be a bit scared into remembering to stay close in future. But I'm not brave enough to try and orchestrate it! :-) <br /><br />xoMammy Phttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07999420446242213319noreply@blogger.com
