I do need cameras.  My point is that my kid has reason to be angry, and not because I told him something, because he saw something.  Frankly “I need space, I want to go for a run to cool off” is a pretty reasonable thing for a kid to say even if they are angry because of ridiculous teen angst. [/quote]

It feels like you are changing the narrative here. At first you talk about him leaving but would stay if you told him to stay. Now it’s going for a run - which I agree is fantastic that your kid recognizes that this is a way to deescalate and that he uses it. I think the answer could be very different depending on the question you are posing and the question is not clear. [/quote]

I asked what happened if he went on visitation, walked out and returned at the time he knew I was picking up.  I don't know that it matters what he does during that time.  Someone else posted about running, and that's a likely possibility, but he also bikes. Or he might wander around. [b]He knows he couldn't go home[/b], and I don't think he'd go to a friend but he might.

I wrote walk, because I didn't want to imply it's a situation where he's bolting in the heat of the moment.  [/quote]
If you close enough for him to bike between your 2 home than what's stopping him?[/quote]

He knows that if he left and came to my house, then it wouldn't be visitation.

But most of the time, their Dad takes them to their aunt's house for visitation, and I drop and pick up there.  That isn't biking distance, or at least it would be a long bike ride.  [/quote]
