My 7 year old autistic Daughter sometimes does this thing where you walk towards her and she runs so your left chasing her round a shop or wherever it is. Does anyone else child do this? Have you found a way to stop them doing it? Thanks in advance.

I have two children with ASD & to be honest they love nothing more than being chased. I’ve avoided taking them in shops for years. It’s something I hardly do. They also don’t cope well with busy environments & just want to escape.
