[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]IMO, avoidance is top priority because this is a serous safety issue. So leash or otherwise hold onto her 100% of the time when the possibility to run exists. [/quote] I agree with this, but I also think that there can be a pattern where the only time a kid is free is in a place where it isn't safe to run, and so people undereact to the running, and it gets reinforced because it's not a big deal. So, even if the running occurs in a safe place (e.g. my kid liked to bolt in the hallway of preschool if we were picking up sibling. Preschool hallway is a pretty safe place to run, so I wasn't hold his hand), react like they ran in the parking lot. [/quote]
