Answer 1

It's a very lonely and scary thing to do and by the way it is normal to feel this way and it will pass. Stay at home and listen to your parents. You may not like what they say but they do have more experience and know more than you.

Answer 2

Running from your problems is never the answer... whether they be at home, at work, or in any other relationship life has to offer. I recommend you talk to someone about this. Your schools have counselors for a reason and they won't tell others about your business unless you health or safety is at risk. I suggest you write a journal and try to figure out what it is that you feel you can't share with your parents or what it is that you want them to know that they're not hearing. Parents, who aren't mentally, physically, or emotionally abusive typically aren't bad people. They might be busy or stressed, but usually they want the best for their offspring. So, maybe give them a chance and just talk to them ~ and stress how important it is that they listen if they aren't giving you their full attention. If it's a bad situation or they genuinely don't care, then look to counseling. There are hotlines and services designed to help and protect adolescents. Use them if you need to. But my impression is that you just need someone to talk to, so my advice is don't do anything without thoroughly considering the consequences. It could tear your family apart and ruin your life if anything were to happen to you on the streets or even if nothing happened, but the government could take you away and place you in foster care.
Take care!

Answer 3

Well, I think I can relate to your situation because I have run away before a couple of times and my parents weren't even that bad. You need to talk to them like a mature adult and without making it sound like you're blaming them of anything (even though it is kind of their fault). Just word everything considerately and say "I really love you both very much, but lately I've been feeling neglected and it's creating an unhappy environment for me." Tell them that you feel like your feelings are being ignored and that it hurts you. When I ran away from home, I stayed with one of my friends and then another, and although I was mad at my parents and my friends' parents were very nice, they weren't MY parents and ultimately I still didn't feel like my feelings were being considered. I ended up going back home and then my parents were finally ready to listen. When it was time to go to college I moved off campus, and that helped A LOT. So try talking to your family first, and if you still feel this way maybe find another family member to stay with. If you are being physically abused, then you SHOULD leave. Verbal abuse and neglect is just as bad, but there are other solutions that will be better in the long-term than just leaving. Maybe you could get them to go to family counseling, or at least you could talk to a counselor and maybe they could help you talk to your parents. I sympathize with your situation and if you need to talk, you can always e-mail me here! good luck!

Answer 4

And running away is going to solve things.......how? As bad as things might be at home, trust me, it'll be a lot worse living on the street. You don't need to do that - way too risky for you. I'd suggest calmly asking them to sit down with you and tell them (without letting emotions get the better of you) how you're feeling. Don't accuse, but just tell them what's in your heart. It might even help to write something out and read it to them. If you were my daughter I'd really want to know what was going on with you and how you were feeling, and then together we could work it out.

So I'm not your mom, and you're not my daughter, but here's a hug from THIS mom to you! And I'm really glad you're reaching out for some help and advice, because people really do care about you.

Answer 5

How old are you? Running away doesn't solve anything. Maybe your parents have other things on their minds that are stressing them out. Are u causing problems for them and having an attitude with them when they ask u to do something. If so that don't help the situations- be mature. Cause they probably give u everything u want and u need to appreciate and respect your parents. I have kids so I know.

Answer 6

You don't say how old you are. If you haven't graduated from high school, stay put.

The world is a big, lonely, scary place and you don't have the skills to deal with it yet.

Of course they get on your nerves. You are growing up and feeling like an adult and want to be in control of your own life. Understand that you are not ready, grit your teeth, and deal.

Answer 7

So where are you going to live? Do you have money for food or clothes?

If you love your parents do you really think running away is the answer. Have a calm adult conversation with them about what is bothering you and maybe you guys can resolve some of it.

Answer 8

I ran away when I was 4, I packed a suitcase and left a note on a papertowel in crayon. I think I felt lost.

Answer 10

if you and your parents are not seeing eye-to-eye, it's normal. parents get on our nerves, especially teenagers.

maybe find things to keep you occupied (reading, a hobby, exercise, spending time with a friend) when you are not busy with school and other responsibilities....

your parents don't mean any harm...

if you want better answers, elaborate on the problem?
