hate living wif my family...should i run away?

Question

i get this thing in my mind tat i dislike living wif my family as they are so naging n theres no freedom.....

Answer 1

well ... how old are you? i went though this and didnt run away, it was hell for awhile but it eventually got better. if i were you i would stick it out because there are so many dangers out there that you don't even realize. i ended up stranded with some guy in a crappy van pcking me up and taking me to in-n-out burger. it worked out but i could have been in TROUBLE. so my advice:stick it out, and try to find some ways to cope. maybe stay at school longr or friends houses... anything

Answer 2

No. I don't know how old you are so I won't tell you it matters. I will tell you that family life is hard. It's not easy to live with family especially if you happen to be different than they are. Parents sometimes don't understand the culture your in to whether it is your music, art or friends. They become worried when you stay out too late or if you are at a party. If you are teenager this can become frustrating. They also become scared as you grow up because they know that one day you will move out and become an adult. Don't run away from your family. Sit down and talk to then so they know how difficult it is for you. Don't argue with them when you do it. You'll make them understand if you come to them in a calm manner and remain so even after they start yelling. (assuming they may get mad that you aren't happy with the living conditions.) If you run away and are underage you could end up in jail depending on the laws of the state you are in. You could also end up a lot worse off than just a night in jail. All those terrible stories your parents tell you about life on the streets are true. Just go ask a homeless person or a prostitute how hard it is. I'm not saying you'll end up like that but without the support of family, it can happen to anyone. You take care of yourself and move out when you have an education and steady income. Then you won't have to run away, you can move out. That's the only safe way to do it. It sucks waiting for that but it's worth it in the end.

Answer 3

Because you say "run away" instead of "move out," and because of how you write in general, I assume you are a minor.

I left my parents' home and got my own apartment at age 16, because my parents seemed oppressive and naturally at 16 I knew everything. I had no skills, of course, and had to work three low-paying jobs to make ends meet. I eventually succeeded, but it's not a life path I'd recommend if you have better alternatives. College will be very difficult to achieve without parental support, for example.

If you do this, one thing you will find out quickly is that unlike your family, the real world won't "nag" you to be responsible; it just kicks you in the head and walks away. That can be a valuable lesson - my experience made me very self-sufficient - but it's a painful lesson too.

Answer 4

Hey you are not the only one out there. Almost all parents are nagging and protective. Only like 1% of the teen population has a cool mom or dad. Your parents will always love you no matter what. You may really hate them sometimes but hey what are parents for. To answer your question no I don't think you should run away. What is for you outside of your home. Danger, drugs, sex? Stay at home where you are safe. And by the way no body likes their parents we love them. So stay home and when you are 18 you get as far away as possible to go to college. just to piss em off.

Answer 5

I would say definately not. No matter how hard life at home is, life on the streets is harder. And that will not help you at all with your family. You just need to do your best. Maybe if you make some really good decisions they will give you some freedom. Also, you don't have to live that much longer with them anyhow. Even 5 years at home is better than a year on the streets.

Think about this: you have no way to get food, no way to get money, you'll get cold, maybe have to turn to some things you really don't want to do just to survive. Think about how tough they have it, and you'll want to stay home!

Answer 6

No don't I wouldn't. More than likely its due to your age, you want more than your family is ready to handle. It happens to all of us, it only makes you really glad when you can live on your own. If something is going on at home that is really bugging you, then you should find someone to talk too. If its all about nagging and freedom then figure out what they are nagging you about most of the time, do it before they nag and then they may give you more freedom. Whatever you decide, just remember it won't always be like this even if it seems like it.

Answer 7

OK suppose you will run away,then what will you do out in the doggy dog world out there,all alone?,if you are a girl then matters are much worse!
you are just a little jumpy from the stiffling routine of yr family,thats all,dont be so impulsive and act in haste,yr family nags you cuz they all truly love you,would you bother to correct someone down the street when you do not love them?
you will know the crux of my point AFTER you run away,then you will know how deeply you were loved,after surviving the ordeal!
now ....you will be posting a question on yahoo answers asking us if you should return to yr family back or not!

Answer 8

Running away is not going to solve your problems, it will only create new ones. You should sit down with your family and try to discuss your problems with them. Perhaps you can all work it out. If that does not work, get a job. That will get you out of the house more and put extra money in your pocket besides. Reading a little out of the Bible each night would be helpful also. Give these suggestions a try and best of luck.

Answer 9

WHAT'S "WIF" SPELL IT RIGHT W-I-T-H. YOU SOUND LIKE A RETARD WHEN YOU SAY "WIF". GO AHEAD RUN AWAY, YOU WON'T LAST TWO SECONDS IN THE REAL WORLD. YOU THINK YOU HAVE IT BAD AT HOME? YOU DON'T PAY RENT, UTILITIES OR GROCERY BILLS. YOU DON'T REALIZE HOW GOOD YOU HAVE IT. THE NAGGING AND "NO FREEDOM" IS JUST YOUR PARENTS SETTING DOWN SOME RULES TO LIVE BY, TO MAKE YOU A BETTER PERSON.

Answer 10

If you talk like you type I can understand why they get tired of dealing with you.

Don't be a fool stay in school! (you really need it)

Two words: SPELL CHECK!

English translation:
I hate living WITH my family. Should I run away?
I get this thing in my mind THAT I dislike living WITH my family as they are so NAGGING AND THERE IS no freedom.

The corrected words are displayed in all CAPITALS.

The proper way to refer to yourself is "I" not "i".

Ebonics is not a language only an excuse for ignorance and laziness!

Answer 11

Where would you go? Runaways end up being drug abusers, prostitutes, homeless, etc. .Could home life be so bad that these options would be better? Besides, you're only 13. You'd be hurt the first night you were gone. There are sick and mean people in the world looking for young girls like yourself.

the answer is no, do not run away.
