What are the consequences of running away?

Actually I just want to know. Is it a crime? Can you get taken away from home and put into a juvenile home? Or is it just based on what your parents say to do. What is everything that would happen?

Answer #1

No one could tell you everything that could happen and they’re much too numerous to list here - ranging from ok to extremely bad, possibly even life-threatening - recommend: education and stay at home until you’re old enough and prepared to be independent - if abuse is involved, report it asap…I wish you the best !!
