Running away is a serious problem. There are lots of runaway and homeless kids living in the streets around the world.

孩子们为什么想离家出走呢?

★Some kids run away because they have problems with their families.

★Some kids run away because they’re afraid to tell their parents the bad things that they did at school or in society.

★Some kids run away because there is violence(暴力) in the family.

★Some kids run away because their parents divorce(离婚) or marry again.

★Some kids run away because they have problems at school.

What will you do if your friend wants to run away from home?

If your friend is thinking about running away, tell him or her that it is difficult to survive(幸存) in the streets. Try to help your friend feel less alone.

Whatever the problem is, there are other ways to solve it. Maybe you can’t think of the ways right now, but an adult(成年人) will know how to help you. You should tell an adult that your friend plans to run away as soon as possible. Being a real friend doesn’t mean keeping a secret that may hurt someone. And running away isn’t a solution(解决方法) for either of you. It only makes more problems and danger.
