Guest guest Posted April 20, 2003 Report Share Posted April 20, 2003 I used to sleep in front of my duplex's front door so that would not wander outside and play in the grass at four am. I woke up when he tried to push me out of his way. Maggie ________________________________________________________________ The best thing to hit the internet in years - Juno SpeedBand!

Guest guest Posted April 20, 2003 Report Share Posted April 20, 2003 Oh, ellen, what a heart stopper. Did I ever tell you about the time the police knocked on my door at 7am because I was asleep and was on the roof? I know your terror.

Guest guest Posted April 20, 2003 Report Share Posted April 20, 2003 > YIKES!!!!!!!!!! That is petrifying too!! How old was he then?? > > ellen He was in kindergarten, so he was...4. He unlatched and cranked open a window that had the screen removed, and crawled out onto the roof overlooking the driveway in his pajamas, although there was frost. A cop was passing by " on her way to get her morning coffee " -- we live one block down from the coffee shop -- and she saw him up there. I was fast asleep; he was on alternate days at school and it wasn't a school day. Children's Aid came for a visit after that, but luckily the guy who came had previously worked at a residence for autistic kids and knew all about the escape factor -- thank goodness!!!
