[quote=Anonymous]Here is a list of recommendations that can make it a little safer/less stressful. In particular having a current photo, the ID bracelet (or conceal ID in a shoe), and teaching how to cross the street if you can. https://www.cdc.gov/ncbddd/disabilityandsafety/wandering.html I wonder if you really did have to pick him up after he broke the plates. As you say, this isn't sustainable for you physically as he grows. What would you do if you really couldn't lift him anymore? You might like to look into Pathological Demand Avoidance parenting strategies, because a lot of it's about how the parent can survive and endure really really really horrible and disrespectful behavior. Sometimes it's painful to read it, because the advice is things like, "take deep breaths while your child is screaming at you". Or "ask him politely to slap you less hard". But for people in that situation I think it helps.[/quote]
