my mom is being really mean to me lately and i have no idea why. last night i was carving my pumpkin and she litteratly came out of her room and started yelling at me for no apparent reason...meanwhile i was on the phone with my friend from Iowa and he heard all of that, she yelled, screamed, and was downright mean to me. my lil bro was listening to HIM on my iPod so that could have triggered her to yell at me cuz she doesnt like the music that i listen to so she dont like my bro listening to it...get it im a stereotype. yea, my friend said that i could move in with him in Iowa but hes only 15 and lives by himself......but i think that if i run away she will come find me somehow and like almost kill me at that!!! i really like him but i dont know if i should go live with him or not.
p and t

You never know what your Mom might be going through. Maybe she is under a lot of stress, or something happened to upset her. Maybe she is depressed. Mom's don't like to tell kids when something is wrong or worrying them.
Running away is not the answer either. Maybe sit down and talk with your Mom try to help out around the house a little more to take some of the stress off her.....

First off, if your friend is only 15, then it's not up to him to let you move in - it's up to his parents/guardians. And I seriously doubt they want another child to take care of. It's not their job to raise you, feed you, clothe you, and buy you pumpkins and iPods.
From what you said, all your mom is doing is yelling at you, which is not worth running away over. Is she beating you? Doing drugs? Sexually abusing you? Those are good reasons kids run away, not just because mommy is "mean." Do you realize how spoiled and immature you sound? You should be thankful you have a mom who would come and find you if you run away. Some wouldn't care at all.
Your mom is very likely under a lot of stress. Maybe she's got money problems, or friend problems. You don't mention your dad. Is your mom single? Maybe she's lonely, or having problems with her boyfriend, or problems with your dad. Maybe someone in your family, like a grandparent, is really sick. Or maybe your mom is just really tired, feeling sick, or maybe people are yelling at HER at work. Whatever the reason, you running away is going to just stress her out that much more, which isn't a very nice way of helping the situation.
Even the best parents in the best families get angry and tired and stressed out now and then. Try to talk to your mom sometime when she's not yelling at you, and see if there's anything you can do to help her. That's what families are supposed to do - help each other, not run away when times get tough.

Do not go live with your friend. It just a bad idea and if you run away to him you can be arrested if your mother chooses to report it.
Also she is your mother so respect her when she says she does not like your music, so she does not want your brother listening to it. From now on tell your brother he will need to check with your mom first regarding borrowing your ipod or music in general. If he wants to listen to it so bad he can buy his own ipod and then she can fight it out with him. But do not fuel the fire.
Talk to your mom regarding the problems and the fact that a 3rd party heard the yelling. If it does not help talk to a counseler about your options. Since I don't know where you live I could not find an exact website, but you can search for "safe havens for runaways" in your area.

Running away from home will be suicidal for you and repent your whole life over it. Do not even think on those lines. Try to understand your Mom's reasons for yelling at you. She has got a right over you having brought you up from the date of your birth.If you are grown up enough to run away to your b/f, then you are grown up enough to initiate steps to keep your Mom happy in several ways. Think seriously.Help her with her problems.Keep communication and let her open heart to you .Let peace prevail in your family.

If you do not wish to see the wrath - do not play it where I can hear. Otherwise shut up and take it.
I say run away and live with the lying 15 year old in Iowa.
You can write each other in crayola for the next 3 years from juvy jail.
You obviously have no respect for your Mom.

I don't think running away would be the answer. Talk with your mother and tell her that you love her. If that doesn't bring any successful results then maybe talk with your guidance counselor at school. Running away sounds much more fun then it is.

try talking to your mom as you would talk to any of your friends and ask how is everything, is she ok, is there anything you can help her with, heck, even show her how to use yahoo answers, if she won't open up to you, she may open up online and we can help her out & also help you & little bro out too....
he's 15 and lives alone? you should blog that story.....

How old are you? Maybe your mom has some personal problem. Why not talk to her. Maybe, just maybe she needs someone to talk to.

stay at home with your mum and try not to let your mum know you are still associating with him. like don't let her know when you are on the phone with him or when you are going to visit him
