Years ago, when my son was 5 and also when he was 6, he would just take off, if something upset him. No, he didn't go far, thankfully, but yes he did take off, usually just around the block, but it always took us by surprise. Once he did it at school. (His teacher was sick that day, so he just left) We did not have him on meds until grade one, so I am wondering if your son is on the correct meds for him. He probably is, but thought I should mention it. Fortunately for us when he grew up, and needed to get out just to think, he would tell us, and I knew everything would be okay. Perhaps talking to your doctor, or a doctor who knows and is familiar with ADD behavior will help you. If your doctor doesn't know much about this particular behavior in ADD, then have him refer yu to someone who does. He as you know, if too young to do this. It can't be easy for you either. Good Luck
