Re: How normal is wanting to run away from home?
Yeah, I'm sure every kid has thought this at one time or another with varying degrees of determination. My home was not abusive at all, and I've "tried" to run away several times when I was a little kid. Once I remember packing some stuffed animals into a backpack and taking them to down the street to my friend's house convinced that I was never going home. No reason at all. It just seemed like a good idea. Then my mom called me home for dinner and that was the end of that escapade.
