Bc.. Where would I go?! I don't think I ever thought about it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/running-away-from-home-as-a-kid#post-2144524 Wed, 15 Apr 2015 08:44:31 +0000 Andrea 2144524@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No, but I thought about it a lot! Of course I didn't have the guts to do it so I just applied to universities that were really far away and escaped then. :-P </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/running-away-from-home-as-a-kid#post-2144510 Wed, 15 Apr 2015 08:34:34 +0000 littlebug 2144510@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not REALLY. I would "run away" down to my best friend's house. But my parents knew when I left and where I was. Usually it was because I was upset with my parents for something completely stupid. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/running-away-from-home-as-a-kid#post-2144503 Wed, 15 Apr 2015 08:31:38 +0000 illumina 2144503@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, as a teenager though! I did something bad, can't remember what, and my parents locked me in my room. I climbed out of the window, climbed over our fence and hedge and ran off to my boyfriends. I think his parents called mine when I got there though and they took me home later! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/running-away-from-home-as-a-kid#post-2144500 Wed, 15 Apr 2015 08:30:42 +0000 Synchronicity 2144500@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrbee: I don't remember! I guess I felt that being sent to my room was just an outrageous punishment for whatever I'd been up to. It was definitely an overly dramatic response on my part because I never got into that much trouble growing up... my parents were very fair. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/running-away-from-home-as-a-kid#post-2144493 Wed, 15 Apr 2015 08:27:42 +0000 Adira 2144493@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope! Never. I don't remember ever even thinking about doing it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/running-away-from-home-as-a-kid#post-2144492 Wed, 15 Apr 2015 08:27:31 +0000 bushelandapeck 2144492@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrbee: I got into an argument with my mother and she slapped me...but I totally deserved it for the way I was speaking to her. I went through a very difficult couple of years in high school and I credit my mom for helping me get through it and come out on the other side. We have such a close relationship now and I'm still sad when I think of how much I put her through. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/running-away-from-home-as-a-kid#post-2144486 Wed, 15 Apr 2015 08:24:17 +0000 mrbee 2144486@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Synchronicity: @bushelandapeck: Why did you guys run away? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/running-away-from-home-as-a-kid#post-2144481 Wed, 15 Apr 2015 08:22:53 +0000 bushelandapeck 2144481@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I did...to a neighbors house down the street. I spent the night there but my parents knew where I was. I am definitely not proud of my behavior as a teenager! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/running-away-from-home-as-a-kid#post-2144479 Wed, 15 Apr 2015 08:22:48 +0000 Alivoo01 2144479@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No, but did frequently think about it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/running-away-from-home-as-a-kid#post-2144475 Wed, 15 Apr 2015 08:21:42 +0000 Synchronicity 2144475@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I ran away.... to the garage, where I read my book in the van until my dad found me. He was pissed because I'd left a mean note in my room and they really didn't know how long I'd been gone :P I think I was 6 or 7. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/running-away-from-home-as-a-kid#post-2144474 Wed, 15 Apr 2015 08:20:52 +0000 Mamaof2 2144474@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No, actually I don't know anyone who did! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/running-away-from-home-as-a-kid#post-2144470 Wed, 15 Apr 2015 08:17:46 +0000 mrbee 2144470@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had siblings who ran away from home when I was a kid, so it didn't have much appeal to me by the time I was a teenager.</p> <p>Hope my kids don't run away! Wondering how common it is... did you ever run away from home as a kid? </p>
