Re: PLEASE HELP!
Thank you for posting a bulletin. It sounds like you and your friend have a plan in running away. In order to rent a room at a motel you need to be at least 18. Here are a few other things to consider before running away that are from out website:
• What else can I do to improve my home situation before I leave?
• What would make me stay at home?
• How will I survive?
• Is running away safe?
• Who can I count on to help me?
• Am I being realistic?
• Have I given this enough thought?
• What are my other options?
• If I end up in trouble, who will I call?
• When I return home, what will happen?
Do you feel that running away will solve your problem with your mom? It seems like you and your friend have a strong friendship. It is understandable to that want to not leave your friend with her home situation. Do you think that your parents will file a runaway? Have you talked to anyone about your plan?
We are a 24/7 confidential hotline. You are welcome to call us here at 1800RUNAWAY (786-2929) to discuss in more detail and options. Good luck!

PLEASE HELP!
me and my best friend have been through everything together (we're 14)
and now, we want to go through one more thing
that's running away
my situation:
i grew up with a single mother, she had me when she was 19
she never acted as a parent should,
she just wanted to be my friend
she would always yell at me and i became depressed
i started drinking, cutting, and i smoked a few times
the only father figure i have lives on the opposite side of the country.
he says that if i mess up, he's gonna fly here and beat my ***
i'm scared
her situation:
her parents are divorced, but she spends time with both of them
her mom is nice, but her dad is abusive
and a lot of the time, she isn't allowed to do anything
she says she doesn't want me to leave without her.
we seem to have the perfect plan; stealing money from our parents
and taking a taxi to our chosen destination. we would stay
in a motel when we got there and have a daily allowance
and have a budget. we would stay as long as possible.
it seems too good to work, and we don't know what to do anymore...
