@thatdadblog: For those of you wondering about tips for camping for the first time with your son or daughter who has Down syndrome, we bought this tether harness off of Amazon, and it worked great at helping our son to not take off without us knowing. Our was, definitely one of those kids who would notice when everyone wasn't looking and then takeoff- this was a lifesaver. this harness keeps it low on their back, so it doesn't hurt your child. Its a good way to transition into camping and help them learn to stay around the campsite. #downsyndrome #SpecialNeedsSupport

This is so smart. As a mother of an autistic child, an “eloper”… I’d rather be judged than have a missing child.

Took my daughter camping and fishing a year ago, this is awesome. And I might get it the next time we go. I was afraid, but she did really well

Elopement is scary so good for you for this. People who have never experienced elopement won’t understand.

My Twins with Autism do the same thing. I once looked down because there was a spider and my daughter sprinted into the street .. you can’t always keep an eye on them every second. And they will see if you are watching

Everyone judging would also be the ones to judge if something bad happened. Great idea imo!

My son suddenly eloped while we were hiking and it was the scariest 5 minutes of my life. He was literally right in front of me until he wasn’t.

thank you for doing this. I’ve been on a lookout for a kid that eloped and the cops did not care they were not looking volunteers were the only ones who cared and were looking and he was found in a river two days later by a volunteer.
