9 nearly 10 year old is diagnosed autistic and ADHD. Attends a specialist school. He wants to start going to our local park on his own, it is a very quiet estate and one road he has to cross but we get about 2 cars an hour coming up. Husband wants to try, I don’t think he has the social or emotional skills to be out on his own. We have done a few little trials, each time something has gone wrong such as playing too rough, not coming home on time or not looking to cross the road. I know he is growing up and needs some independence but he seems so immature and little still. Does anyone have any thoughts on my situation? Thank you
