if you really are being abused then you need to talk to someone at school. Your 16 there is no where for you to run to if you don't have friends or other family members that would give you a place to stay. Besides running away never helps, your parents will just report you a missing and they WILL find you. It cant be as bad as you think, it never is. Trust me, find new friends and talk to your parents about how you feel. Im only 17 and I know how you feel. Sometimes it seems like your partents are the worst but it will get better with time. Help yourself and ride out the pain at home, youll be 18 befor you know it.

either it's the hari krisnas, the pimps on skiddy row, or stay home and want/need yourself.....

don't be a fool....it probably just SEEMS bad.......you have family and friends all over this planet ----and you won't find 'em by runing away from anything....

if your in any kind of danger - emotianal/physical/ psychological - t's a different story......contact the appropriate resources in yor area - if you can't find 'em readily any one here or elsewhere will help you....

good luck, be calm , and take care of yourself

contact FBI.gov & at the bottom of the homepage, there is a "hot-tip" section. Just fill it in with your story & eventually- you will be rescued by CCS. while you are spending time with others of your own age- consider joining a "nunary" . I have a cousin who has been a nun since she was 16. she is now 43 & tells me it was the best thing that ever happened to her. She too came from an abusive Mom & dad and the glow that she radiates just melts my heart. Im so happy for her & by the way; "Im Jewish...;)

No you don't. And I don't mean that you don't need a different place, I mean that no place will be different from your place until you learn that the only person who needs to love you is you. I know that is wicked and hard. I know that you feel that if someone looks at you with warmth that you think you'll feel something that you don't feel now--but, you won't. You have two parts: your logos and your mythos. Your logos is every day reality and your mythos is the meaning and yearning for something not definable. You have to have both, and to runaway deprives you of logos, so believe me you won't be wondering about the meaning of life--you'll be trying to find a sandwich. You're obviously a person with deep resonance, but the way to truly develop that is to ignore as much drama as you can and raise yourself until you're a bit older. You are 16 and I am 53 and the best advice that I can give you which will serve you well forever is to never, ever make a decision based on only emotion. Our feelings make us alive and who we are and wonderful--but our feelings are very dumb when it comes to reality. Try to imagine the eighty years in front of you and suck up these two and focus on pure purposeful action, and wait. No one ever became happy without learning how to wait. Trust me.

Nowhere... I ran away when I was 15. I found people who offered to help... But the fact of the matter is that nobody gives a ****. They only want to use you and not for anything good. Kids have no rights. Unless you think living in a cruddy group home is better than what you have now... I suggest to you that you ride it out until you turn 18. Unless you have responsible adults you know already who would be willing to take you in. A relative or a friends parents? When you turn 18 you can work and find a good man and eventually have kids. Make sure his family is nice too... Then there is your family. It won't happen over night though. You have to slowly work in that direction. Don't cling to some random guy who comes along... You'll get hurt again. Make sure it is a decent man from a good family that will love and respect you. Not easy to find. Don't fool yourself. Stay logical... Evalute everything before you leap into it. Be careful and focus on yourself. Sometimes we can't rely on anyone but ourselves and you need to be able to do that. The sooner the better. Don't trust anyone until they give you 100% reason to. Watch your back. It is hard to know what someones true intentions are. Half the time they don't even realize their true intent. People suck...
