Case: Elopement
I have one student with autism that is starting to exhibit eloping behaviors. I call the office when I see the antecedent behaviors taking place but he almost walked off campus the other day before someone was able to find him. How can I prevent him from partaking in this behavior?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I work in a ASD classroom and at a camp for kids with special needs and we have students who try to "walk home" all the time! Oftentimes we will use something we know the student likes, sort of like a bribe or incentive to get them to want to stay. Sometimes we have kids run, and we pull anything out of the box we know they like in the moment to keep them SAFE! Once they are safely back under your supervision or inside of a room, then talk to them about how that is a bad decision, and to their best of their ability try to have them understand that is unsafe and will have consequences. Provide them solutions like "if you need a break, you may ask for a walk" or "you may pace the classroom for 5 min if you stay inside and do some work first". It all depends on the kid and their level of functioning and comprehension. |

| Comments: I agree with this solution. Giving the student some incentive to stay in class is a great idea. Also, providing options when the student is upset is also helpful. |

| Comments: this might not get to he root of the problem, and then without a bribe, the behavior might continue |
