Has anyone ever ran away from home?

I ran away at 14 and ended up squatting deep in the forest for a week. I had taken my brothers car and didnt know how to drive in the rain so I ended up nailing a parked car lol. I bounced out for a week but eventually ran outta food and had to go back. I got charged with a hit and run unattended(sp) and ended up with a fatass ticked that i had to work off with community service....

Moral of the story== Running away just prolongs the enevitable(sp)

god im stoned

Alright, so the 2nd time I ran away I planned to be a little more prepared. I started putting together camping and survival stuff and stashed it in a nearby field in a backpack. I had 2 hunting knives, a sleeping bag, first aid kit, water and a whole lot of other stuff I figured I would need for my walk from Florida to California.
One day, it was just bad from my dad's nerves from alcoholism. He would just freak over every little thing. I couldnt turn on the tv, open the fridge or even talk on the telephone. He would get all crazy and slam me into walls and put his hands around my neck and say he was going to fuck me up. There was all kinds of stuff going wrong. My parents got all my cassette tapes and burned them, saying it was the devil (Iron Maiden). At the same time, they were sending cash to Jim and Tammy Baker. I was like fuck it, I am more prepared, I am outta here.
I grabbed my backpack out of the field and start walking down belcher rd to Highway 19 and start walking north. To make a long story short, after walking all day and camping in the woods for a about a week. A police officer stops me and asked for an ID. I buried that about 50 miles ago. They ask for my name and I would not give it to them. They take me to the local Juvenile Detention. Where I finally give them my name and I get sent to a half way house for a couple of months. Ended up walking over 150 miles in a little over a week. Went through counseling with my parents, I ended up getting sent home again. Where not more than a month later, I make my last and final escape.

i ran away when i was about 7....i grabbed a stick, a bandanna, a loaf of bread, and $5...i tied it all into the bandanna, and to the stick, like in the movies (seven, mind you)...then i walked out towards the country road, and hitch-hiked to the next town...where i ate half of my bread, slept for the night, ate the other half, and called mother and father...which sucked, cause father was only home, so i got the belt AND the spoon

Did it once when I was 16, dad was a huge PIA and a drunk. Moved back in after a few months and things got a little better. Finally had it at 18 when i moved out for good. Since then i've been living with friends in the mts. of colorado.
