[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Learning new word in regards to teens, is eloping to skip school?[/quote] It’s not teen specific. It’s when kids with special needs run away from teachers, caregivers, parents, etc. they just take off. It happens at all ages. [/quote] When you see a story in the news about an autistic 7 year old found alone on a busy road or drowned in a pond, it’s because they eloped. It’s a panic response and combined with low impulse control it gets them into risky/bad situations. It’s not just “I left the room.” It’s usually them fleeing what they perceive as a stressful environment in a heightened emotional state. Not great. Certainly not for a regular day camp that’s just keeping kids alive. [/quote]
