If you run from your problems it will only make things worse. This applies to everything in life whether it be family problems or something bigger in the future. Have you tried talking to your family, Tell them how you honestly feel. I don't know what the situation is in your house exactly but if things are that bad maybe talk to a relative or someone you trust. Maybe live with some other family members IF the situation is life threatening. One thing to keep in mind is usually parents aren't trying to be mean or unfair. They decide things with your best interest in mind, to protect you and help you to grow and be a smart, wonderful woman someday. If they don't understand you then HELP them to. Talking is always better than running away. Good luck!

I don't think running away will solve anything. Your family will most likely care. You should explain how you feel to them. I know sometimes parents do misunderstand but try and don't give up. Don't yell or accuse anyone of anything that just makes it worse.
Explain calmly and you as well need to be understanding. it's give and take. Believe me there is a light at the end.
I'm sure God has blessed you in ways you haven't seen yet.

You don't mention your age, but you are probably at an age where you should be fairly self-sufficient.
You can "move on" emotionally.
You can legally get a job after school to build your resume and your self-esteem. You can get involved in some clubs or extracurricular activities at school to make more friends.
You can make your circle of friends into your family and draw encouragement from them.
You can also talk to the school nurse or guidance counselor about your feelings and stress... they really can help.
You can choose to not take your family seriously... the parents are probably tied up just making ends meet.

If you run away, you will be all alone, hungry, cold and vulnerable to some creep wanting to kidnap and kill kids. Don't do it. Make yourself visible by helping out and talking to them like an adult. I use to watch the news with my Dad and would ask him about stuff if I didn't understand what that news item meant to us as farmers,etc . I got a good education and spent time with my Dad making communication between us better. Try something like that! And, just so you know, your family would most definitely notice if you weren't there and would care a great deal!!!

Honey I know that it may feel that way. I think that probably all teenage girls feel that way at one time or another. Just try talking about it to your mom (or whoever your closest with). The fact is that they will care if you run away, they will be frantic and you will probably get into a lot of trouble and lose a lot of your parents' trust. Don't run away, just hold in there and talk about it- tell them how you feel. Good luck, I hope things get better soon.

It is but natural to have arguments in a family once in awhile. I think you should be cooperative with your family and not be a cause of their problem.Do not make your parents be unhappy by running away. Of Course they will miss you and will try to locate and find you. We all should be fair with our family. They are the only one we have. Help solve family problems and not cause it. Talk things out with your parents. By the way, How old are you ?

umm well running away is not the answer im 15 and i felt like running away so many times, but just "go away" for a coulple of days so maybe your family will realize the struggle you are going through and they will think "oh man she is serious about this" when you come back they will be happy to see you...... no garentee how long it will last though, good luck take care of yourself and dont get hurt.

are you under 18? If yes, stay home. Well, maybe after you called them and said you will be away for 48 hours
Stay at a friends house. Food and shelter is a must.
If over 18, stay a friends house for 48 hours and then go home.

No dont run away
Im 15 and i had the same problem it may seem like no one understand you but well its not true. If you run away it could be alot of troble and you could get hurt doing it.
no matter how much you parents act like they dont care they really do dep inside them they want to pay attion to you but THINK they dont have the time. while yall are eating dinner one night come out and tell them how you feel there not harm in expressing your self.

it's a common feeling at your age, i remember feeling exactly the same way. parents get so caught up in trying to keep the family fed clothed and housed that sometimes they forget about the other important things like kid who might be feeling left out.
try talking to someone not quite so close maybe your grandmother or an aunt, ask them to help you talk to your parents.
