Running Away

Running away refers to the act of leaving one’s home or current environment to escape difficult situations, often motivated by stress, fear, or unhappiness. This behavior is commonly associated with children and teenagers who may feel overwhelmed by family issues, bullying, or emotional distress. While it may provide temporary relief, running away can lead to increased risks, such as homelessness, exploitation, or lack of access to necessary support. Addressing the underlying problems through communication and support is crucial to finding healthier solutions rather than choosing to run away.
