Autism - Signs, Symptoms, Treatments, Resources, Support for Autism
A very large percentage of people with autism "wander" - meaning they simply get up and walk or run off, for no obvious reason and in no obvious direction. This behavior is by no means limited to people with autism: the Alzheimers community may be even more vulnerable. Wanderers often seem compelled to wander, which means that locked doors and fences aren't always enough to curb the behavior. And, of course, caregivers can't possibly be vigilant all day and night, nor should they be asked to lock their loved ones in escape-proof settings.
