[blparent] child locator

[Shannan Zinck]

Myles is a wander for sure, it's not that he runs off all the time but, for
instance if he doens't want to do what his father in particular tells him
like coming in he'll run, He can't so much from me when I'm well enough
that to go take him out because I can see just enough to grab him if
necessary and take him in, John can't hear him sometimes and therefore he
can get away from him. The locator is for the yard and places like the park
where he needs enough freedom to play but, this would give us the ability
to track him so he can't chase the cute dog across the street. He gets over
excited and acts before he thinks royally. Very active combined with very
easily distracted. We HAVE to use a leash when we go for walks or we'd be
stopping at every tree as it were. We'd be petting every dog and chatting
with every kid. Most times I just use a stroller or his car with the parent
handle. It has to be something I can strap him into. I'm thinking that the
beeper would give me an obvious reminder to listen. Calling for him rarely
works but, a loud noise in him ear may bring him back into reality. I can't
leash him all the time yet he cannot be trusted to listen when called. He
is just way too distracted for that. I know he'll gown out of at least some
of this but, since I most times am unable to take him out I have to find
something John can use. I don't care about the loud noise if it keeps him
safer. In my opinion it's rare that a 3 year old can be trusted in any
capacity especially an active 3 year old boy. He will hold my hand until he
sees something cool and tries to wriggle away and when I don't let go he
tries to throw himself on the ground and has a first class fit. Good times.
