A Fence for Kingston

We are a military family living in NC. We have three boys, ages 11, 7, and 4. Kingston is our youngest. When Kingston was around a year old, he started showing severe symptoms such as choking on foods, incessant screaming & crying, head banging, running away, and pulling out handfulls of his own hair.



Kingston has non-verbal autism, and a long list of other problems, such as Sensory Processing Disorder, (which makes it impossible to take him anywhere public) an unspecified hyperkinetic syndrome (a muscle disorder), ADHD, toe-walking, and night terrors. He is also showing troubling signs of having ODD. Kingston is a "runner", he likes to run far and fast, usually right into the road. He doesn't come or even look when he's called, and explaining the dangers of running off is just impossible. This is why we need a fence.



We have quite a large backyard, about 1/2 an acre. This photo only shows about 2/3 of it. Our neighborhood covenants say we have to have wood or vinyl... No chain link, so the goal amount reflects a quote from a local contractor.

Our family has been through a lot. I just want to improve my son's quality of life and keep him safe. He's my baby.
