During the southern cal wildfires of 2007, my kids and I were all home. We were lucky- our home was safe, and we were in no danger. I took my 2 boys out shopping, and my younger one aka, "Thing 2" was being a real jerk, answering back, etc on the drive home. He was 9 at the time. Well, a block from home, I let him out of the car, and told him to walk. He met me at home, less than 5 minutes later. He had run the whole way, and two people had offered him to get him help, thinking that he was running away from a fire! Thing 2 has not misbehaved in the car since, and I have not put him out of the car either!
