[quote=Anonymous]When one of my kids went through this phase, we started bringing the stroller places. Every time he ran, I caught him, picked him up, strapped him in without talking, and we either went home, or I ignored him for a while. For example, if we were at the park and he ran, then he could sit in the stroller and watch his sibling play. When I let him out to try again, I'd say "Don't run away". It fixed it pretty fast. I think the chase, and the verbal interaction, can become very reinforcing, so I wanted a consequence strong enough to reinforce that. [/quote]
