Answer 1

thats just stupid... they have their own probs... so you just add to it by running away?... grow up... you would ruin your own life ... instead of trying to fix your problems? that's dumb! ... so stupid... you say you love them... but then you are willing to put them thru the worst hell ever? right... whatever... did you even try to fix this problem with them... really? ...or do you just handle all your probs the same way: "b*tch-n-bolt"? ... that won't get you anywhere... but alone... and bitter... did you try to tell them in a letter? ... you could get all your thoughts on paper... so you don't mess up... so you don't say the wrong things... so you say everything you need to... and they can't interupt or ignore you... they're not perfect... just people with problems... like you... like the rest of us... we're ALL just doing the best we can... just to get by... to survive... with as little hassle and pain as possible... try again... and again... until they listen.

Answer 2

You know what I ran away as a kid dropped out of school and life sucked it really did and I was a guy, but you are a 14 yo girl assuming you avoid becoming addicted to drugs or selling your body and getting beat by a pimp if you don't make enough money or you don't get raped and killed there's the matter of a roof over your head and getting money for food and what not. i say you lasted 14 years there finish school get into college and at 18 you'll be on your own then if you don't wanna go back or have anything to do with them cool. Come on you made 14 years you can do 4 standing on your head. you obviously have a computer go on line and kill time hell I've gone surfing the web and next thing you know I look out the window and the sun is coming up.

Your chances are slim to none. You obviously don't have much of an education. My advise, stick it out at home. Get the best education you can while at home. Work hard and then when you are out of high school with diploma in hand, try to move out on your own. While you are at home though, sit down and talk to your parents. Ask them why there is so much distance. Parents really do care in the majority of cases. It's the teen who just doesn't see how their actions or desires come into the big picture. But if they really don't care then spend the next 4 years prepairing yourself for the real world. Which means hitting the books because to care for yourself out here in the grown up world, you need money. Smarts or major skill gets you the bucks. Good luck kid, you've got a long way to go.

Answer 4

It is hard when you feel that there is no showing of affection, from either Parent. Why don't you tell your mom how you feel, about the way they ignore you, that you feel like what's the use of trying when they do not react the same way you do. If you think that it is better to run away, than be living the way you are doing, think again. Nowadays you have to be on the alert because there are a lot of sexual predators that are trying to lure innocent young victims to their side, do you want to be a statistic, Remember the only one who is going to look after you, is you. I too had Parents who did not show emotions to us kids, the only way I was noticed was when they needed to vent their frustrations on someone, and usually I was the one who got a good beating from my Parents, why? maybe because I never showed any tears as they were hitting me, so my guess is that made them more angry because of it. You say that you are 14, so in four more yrs. you can get a job and when you decide that you want to move from your parents side, then do that, but in the meantime bear with it until you are older. I care.

Answer 5

Definately DO NOT runaway!!! Atleast at home you have food for sure, a bed, clothes, a tv and some cash. In the street you can get hurt if not die and you'll just be suffering. I understand your heart is hurting because of your parents attitude, but it doesn' compare to what you will go through in the street. Keep yourself busy in sports or community clubs make a good person out of your self, hang out with other family members or friends and your parents will soon realize that their little girl is growing up and they're not being part of it, trust me in matter of no time they'll be appologizing. You must keep in mind that your parents might be going through difficult times, money wise or relationship wise they just need some space and time, trust me, been there!!!! Just be patient and don't use it as an excuse to hang out with the wrong people, or do the wrong things, cuz the only person it's going to affect is you! Every time you take a step, take it forward and think about the consequnces. Good luck!! If you ever need someone to talk to, hit me up, [e-mail]

Answer 6

Please don't run away, it is a dangerous world out there for a young person like you. I am sure your parents love you, I guess we are just living in a very busy world and they are probably doing the best they can. Is there a teacher or school counsellor you could talk to? Is there a relative you could perhaps stay with for a while? I am pretty sure you would find living on the streets a pretty bad place. Take care and I give you my best wishes

Answer 7

Your only 14. Can you support yourself financially and emotionally? It may be tough at home, but unless it is abusive I guarantee you that you are not prepared for the world. Try talking to your parents. After all even parents are learning as they go along. Worst case, take this from your experience... promise to be a better parent than you perceive your parents at this time. Take care and hang in there... I find promise in the fact that you are asking. Later.

Answer 8

Before you make any hasty decisions talk to your parents and tell them how you feel. One thing teens dont do these days is talk to their parents. Living in the streets is the worse thing to have to do. Imagine looking through garbage for something to eat. Or trying to find a safe and dry place to sleep each night. Dont think the friends you find in these places will make your life better because they wont. You will be introduced to prostitution, drugs, alcohol etc. Life at home may not be the greatest but take my word for it. Life in the streets will kill you. Get an education, hang with friends and talk to your parents. If you feel they are not listening then tell them so. Maybe they dont realize you feel this way. Good Luck. Teen years are tough but we all get through it somehow

Answer 9

I am 29 and still find it hard. I ran away from home at 17 because my parents and I were fighting. Looking back I should have stuck it out. Trust me on this, you only have 4 years to put in with your parents and if you are not being abused then you should stay. The only way that a young teenager should move out is if they are in harm if they stay.

Answer 10

I did run away at 14 and it is a living hell to do that at that age. You will be a potential victim for every predator out there. Your age alone makes you more vulnerable than most.

There are people you can talk to before you do something that drastic.
If you cant talk to a teacher or school counselor try this hotline.
