My daughter never wandered off so when I lost her at the checkout at Tesco I was apoplectic!! They were fantastic; the till girl immediately informed her manager who informed security who would not let anyone with a child leave the store until she was found. She'd hidden in a trolley locker as a game.

Pink is an escape artiste, and has caused us a couple of moments of true terror. Thanks to your comments I suddenly feel slightly less dreadful knowing I'm not alone.<br />My worst was when at 20 months old she escaped to the road at the front of our house, and a neighbour scooped her up - 3 houses down, in the road, headed towards a blind bend... *shudder*Laura (LittleStuff)http://www.littlestuff.co.uk/blognoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3629523777912990939.post-84199684895662555412010-03-21T00:30:27.928+00:002010-03-21T00:30:27.928+00:00My kids are a bit older and I have taught them if ...My kids are a bit older and I have taught them if they are lost in a shop to:<br /><br />1.

Go to a till point and tell a person who works there you are lost.<br /><br />There is nothing worse than that feeling of rising panic whne you can't find your child. Horrible.

His mum spotted him just as a man was opening the main gate to let him through. She ran over and asked what he was doing and the man said 'I asked him if he was lost and he said no.' - I know, what a fool!
