Were you a teenage runaway?

The reason why I ran away when I was 12 because my mother didn't let me have my freedom!! But now i regret it because I know she was stressed out and sad. I made her cry and I did all kinds of stuff until I got older I realized. Sometimes you just have to let that girl learn from her own mistakes. You should tell her don't runaway if you want to do something or go out to sleepover your friends house just tell me. Let her do things she want. And be open and cool. It's better knowing what she's doing and letting her do what she wants than forcing her not to do things and scolding her which makes her hide and runaway. But before anything just bring her to the doctor to get checked up for a papsmere and put her on the pill or any other type of birth control. Because I lost my virginity when I was 12. Ask her in a nice way if she's having sex and tell her your okay with it and tell her you'll help her. Don't worry she'll realize when she gets older and starts thinking partying and having fun ain't fun no more.

My brother...essentially ran away...did it 2 wks after he turned 17...Ended up doing some things he really wished he hadn't...drugs - and at one time had a ton of money only to end up homeless for almost 3 months, spent time in county jails (yeah more than one)

I assure you - this girl has it pretty darn good. I know what he would say to this girl....how much does she like being beaten and raped? That is what happens to 13 yo girls...what too fat...not for long...she'll be beaten and starved and then raped.

If she is that unhappy...then deal with it. What you think life is always fun and great...try being an adult....mortgage, bills, kids needs, work yuck it all sucks.

I wish I had her problems growing up.

My father was a drug addicted alcoholic who beat me and my mother every day. I was forced to sell crack by age 8 and carried a gun for protection. I saw my father kill a man at age 5, when I asked him why he said "take a good look at what will happen if you ever steal from me". My parents were both dead by age 10 and I lived in a crack house till I was put in a Juvenal detention center where I stayed till age 18. So tell her to get off the pity pot and grow up.

the place the Day Takes You (1992)... its approximately team of runaways residing on the streets and all of the stuff that occurs to them. It has an somewhat youthful will smith, sean astin, lara flynn boyle, Ricki Lake,.. in accordance to my boyfriend (who streeted it for the ordinary public of his teenage years), its a very close representation of whats its desire to runaway and be homeless. despite in case you do no longer use it, its an stunning action picture to computer screen.

Well...I didn't run away physically, but I ran away emotionally/mentally from my parents.

They were on such a different palne then I was, that I had to detach myself from them, before they sucked me into their own closed-mindedness (even though I knew they'd never suck me in).

The "single action" that my parents could've done so that I wouldn't of distanced myself (emotionally) from them would of been for them to just see reality for what it was. To live not in-denial...live with an open mind..

I dislike most of the teenagers, they always rude, cocky and boasting. you cannot even make conversation with them, they will come up with some silly things, sarcastic remarks, they think they all that......aliens!

I am glad I was good alien, as my mum always tells me. thank God.

13 year olds that run away can go to jail. So if you would rather be in jail than at home. Run away.

all teenage runaways are in denial about something or wanting things that are inappropriate for their age unless there was violence or sexual abuse

i am a teeneage run away, hehe. it doesnt matter what my mum sais or does, im nt gna listen to her, i dnt like her end of. lol
