A child who is abused by a parent feels confused, sad, depressed and has little control in their lives and doesn't understand what they have done wrong. They seldom will play with their peers; their grades slip if they are going to school and they may become sullen, moody and stay indoors most of the time (often because the abusive parents refuses to let them out of the house.) They try to please their abuser hoping that they will be loved as they should be, but no amount of pleasing will change their abuser's wrath. If the child is sexually abused by a stranger or family member they feel ashamed, afraid to tell anyone and live a life of constant turmoil which follows them into their adult life.
It is common for a child to shy away if being abused because they are living in fear. Children of abuse have absolutely no control over the issue nor do they understand what true abuse is and often they consider this to be a nature way of life for most families. 20 years ago social workers with children often thought that when they confronted the two parents if the child ran to the one parent they considered this to be the safe parent, but soon learned this is not true because often the child will run to their abuser out of fear and habit.
Usually no because they are demented.
The one you live in - go home! It doesn't matter where you go, the police will still be looking for you and the people helping you will still risk being charged for helping a runaway. You are not gaining anything on running away. If you are being abused at home you can call the Child Protective service and they can help you.

call childline 0800 1111 If child is emotionally abused they can contact the Child Protective Agency and they will make an assesmant and valuate the situation. They will find you a new home if need be, Running away is not allowed and as a minor you can not move out as you please without parental permission. In a situation like this the state would take over custody.
Yes. * Maybe. The relative would have to request an investigation from the department of children and family services in the state where the child resides. If the investigation warrants the child being removed from the family home the relative can then petition the court for guardianship rights.
I would tell the child that it's too bad, "what I say goes", lift the kid up, and go home. No child should be allowed to boss around the parent. The only way for them to learn this is with a few spankings and lectures, instead of simply shying away and allowing the child to get what they want.
This would be very unlikely. If the mother is providing for the child and the child is not being abused why would the child be taken away from the mother. Why would the child be taken away from where it is being cared for properly and give to someone who has had problems with the law?
Yes, if it is determined that you are being abused or neglected you can be taken away from an adoptive parent.
You would suffer horribly and wish for someone to take you away from the pain and fear.
Running away is always without parental consent! If the parent would consent to you running away they are kicking you out and are guilty of child abandonment. Nothing will be solved by running away though. If you are being abused contact the police or the CPS.
Report it right away.
Some do, some don't. The smart ones hopefully walk away from the relationship when they recognize they are being abused and that they don't deserve it.
Contact the Child Protective Service or the Police and they will help you with a place to stay. Just running away or moving out without parental permission or emancipation is not allowed. You don't have to stay and be abused in any way.
A theripist can help you gain access to traumatic memories and encouradge disclosure to them. They can help an adult who was abused as a child, and help a child face their fearful memories and throw them away so as not to let it haunt them until they are older. A therapist can do wonders to those who have been traumitized in even the smallest way. If you have been abused, I would personally sugest, and from my reaserch and experience recommend seeing a therapist.
You don't. It is dangerous and unnecessary. If you are being abused notify the authorities.
In the United States, no. The father should establish his paternity legally if the parents are not married. The mother would encounter problems leaving the country with the child if she attempts to kidnap the child. If she is being abused she should seek the help of an attorney (or court advocate or church) who can review her situation and explain her options. Otherwise she has no right to remove the child and separate her from her father.

When it is a newborn, there is no way to know if it is abused or not. If the parents pose a risk to the child, the state will take steps to protect the child.
