A few reasons teens run away-1- They Don't Feel Loved.

2- They Don't Like A Step Dad, Step Mom, Etc.

3- Abuse.

4- They Feel They Are Mature And Can Handle Life On Their Own.

5- Peer Pressure, Sex, Drugs, Alchol.

6- They Don't Get Enough Attention (Or They Get Too Much).

7- They Want Freedom.

8- They Don't Want Their Parents To "Boss Them Around".

9- They Are Scared- For Some Reason.

10- They Want To Get Pregnant.

11- They Want To Prove To Their Parents They Can Handle Life.

12- They Want Their Parents To Look For Them And Get More Attention.

Far as teens, once they run away, you can't put pressure on them or be quick to yell or scream at them because it will only cause them to run away again. most teens have their own personal problems and we should sometimes understand that.

A child might run away because they are mad at their parents. ---- While the above may be true to a certain degree, children typically "run away from home" because of child abuse, neglect, and trauma within the family relationship and "running away" is a way to escape the abuse and trauma. The child could run away because they do not want to go to school because of bullies or they just want some time alone Another reason is the overloading of work to the degree that they can't handle it anymore

There are many different reasons why a kid would run away from home. Maybe abuse, maybe they're just not happy. It depends on the kid's reason.

If a parent tells a child to get out of their house can that parent then call the child in as a runaway?

Well, they can but they would be lying. The parent is kicking them out of the house, the child is not running away; sooner or later the police (if the parent did call the child in as a runaway) would probably figure out the child did not runaway and the child was kicked out. If the parents kicked them out, then why would they call the child in as a missing if they didn't want them?

Can your child be labeled a runaway if they do not tell you where they are going?

A child becomes a runaway when they are missing for over 24 hours. However, if you go to Child Aid and request some help to control your child it would be best for you and your child. There are several good programs children can get into and your child needs some guidance before they get into trouble.


Is it illegal to harbor a runaway in Iowa?

Iowa Code § 710.8 makes it illegal to harbor a runaway. It is an aggravated misdemeanor to do so. A person shall not harbor a runaway child with the intent of allowing the runaway child to remain away from home against the wishes of the child's parent, guardian, or custodian. However, the provisions of this subsection do not apply to a shelter care home which is licensed or approved by the department of human services.


What is the law for Harboring a Runaway Child?

The laws vary between states but they all have laws about it. If you know the child is a runaway you are keeping that child from their parents. A minor can not decide where to live. So it can be abduction, contributing to the the delinquency of a minor etc. Report it now.
