Re: School Let Him Get Away!!!! Long Vent

All I brought up the lost child issue in May ~ I did some research on the

subject and found that there is indeed a " lojack " system for people. In the

state of CT, the CT Highway Patrol provides wristbands to be used for

individuals with Alzheimer's. I'm waiting for CT to send me more

information... as soon as I get more info I'll pass it on...

How far how quickly?????

Ironically, had just had a PT evaluation at KKI and his running

speed was measured when he left school. I can't remember right now how fast

he ran at that time, but I used this at the meeting to show he could be hit

by a car within a minute from running out of the building. Terri, during

his next PT eval, ask the PT to measure his speed and document that in the

report.

Hi Everyone:

I just want to thank everyone for your responses and suggestions, even though

I haven't even had time to read them all yet. At the same time that Evan was

" playing in the street " when he escaped from school, my Mother-In-Law was

being rushed to the hospital for heart failure. She isn't doing well and we

are trying to spend as much time with her at the hospital as we possibly can.

I will indeed respond to all of your posts about this and I will update you

next week about what is going on with the school. Thanks again. I knew I

could count on all of you for your support.

You did the right thing, Terry, and don't let anyone tell you different.

Going to the school board is a very good idea. Hang in there and kick butt!

Hi Terry,

Thank goodness Evan is fine. I know your frustration first hand. When Kendra

was 4 and attending a preschool for special needs children the preschool

staff left her on a public transportation bus and she went to the other side

of town before she got off and followed a strange lady home. The women

fortunately knew something was not right with the picture and called the

police who had already had a call from the preschool. The similiar thing is

that the direction tried to blame Kendra, by saying she was hiding. I got it

straightened out really quick. It was not Kendra's fault and she can not be

expected to make good choices. I think the school system is a lot more

difficult when it comes to this but you ARE in the right. They do not like

us over reacting(as they call it!) They need to walk in our shoes to

appreciate what is and what is not overreacting? I'm sure they'd change

their tune.

Anyhow, keep the faith, your instincts will never let you down.

Sherry,

Can I ask a question, I noticed you have a child with DS and and one with

autism. Is there some kind of genetic thing to have 2/3 children. My

daughter is 15 months old with DS, I was just curious, hope you don't mind.

Sherry,

You say Kendra will be coming home alone for about 10 minutes. Can she

unlock the door by herself? Just curious.

That's too funny about, People lock doors?

I never lock my front door. I guess I probably should but I just never had any

problems. We live in a very safe(as safe as you can get) neighborhood.

I don't know if she could munipulate the lock and Key.

Wow, Sherry! Where do you live that you can keep your doors unlocked? I

think I live in a safe neighborhood too, but I could never leave a door

unlocked. Too many weirdos around in this world. Kendra isn't 22 is she?

Your last post had that age written next to her name. I thought she was

about 's age......

Sherry,

Perhaps manipulating a key in the lock isn't necessary. (if you decide to

lock the door, we've just never gotten in the habit....like you we probably

should. LOL)

Anyway, a garage door opener could get a person into a locked house, as long

as the door between the house and garage is left unlocked. Or there must be

some type of keyless entry systems like I got on my car available for homes.

I could be way off base on that one tho. Just seems if they can do it for

cars they should be able to do it for house doors, shouldn't they?

I always thought we lived in a nice safe area too, but we have had

things happen the last few years and I keep my doors locked 24 hours a day.

Just recently the gal next door had her car window broken and some things

stolen out of it. Right HERE! Another thing, I keep my storm door locked so

if someone I don't know comes to thes door I can talk through it and still

have a locked door between us. You just never know. Jessie
