Why do They Run away?
1) More than a million American teenagers run away from home every year. Their parents are often puzzled and hurt: why do they do it?
2) There is usually a lack of understanding on both sides – parents and child – problems in communication.
3) More than half of these runaways are girls. Their average age is 15. For one reason or another, they refuse to stay at home. Of course, the great majority of young people never run away from home. Nevertheless, the problem is a serious one. Many runaways come from homes broken by divorce or homes where there is an alcoholic parent. Some run away from parents who bit them. But there are also many runaways who come from healthy homes where no such problems exist.
4) Unfortunately, young people who leave their homes often run into trouble. They don’t have any idea how to get along in the lonely and often dangerous world they find after leaving home.
5) Most of them have no money to survive. It is not easy to make money if you are only 15 or 16 years old. Legally they are too young to get a job.
6) The police say that most runaways return home within a few days.
7) However, the longer a runaway is away, the more likely he or she is to get into trouble. One set of problems is often replaced by another. Runaways often think that they will find friendly people, who want to help them. But the sad fact is that cities are full of people who only want to take advantage of them.
8) There are four main means of survival on the street: begging, stealing, prostitution and drug dealing. Sometimes it leads to suicide.
9) There are a lot of charity organizations which try to protect street children. But unfortunately, the number of teen runaways is rising and the kids are getting younger.
