Anonymous, considering you post under anomitity, I would let you run. You're right, I do not know all the circumstances surrounding this particular incident. However, i do know there are many a teen out there, who have no respect for anyone and when they do not get there way, they act like this, just like a 3 year old having a tantrum over being told no. You are obviously not a parent, so you have no idea or experience in the subject and should not speak unless you've parented and have Counseled other teens like I have.

to b from Oregon-If you were my mother I would run! You don't know the story and what she did was not done lightly. She needs understanding and the family needs counseling. This may have been her only way to get attention drawn to some of the problems in the home. When I was a teen there were places like Briar Patch where we could go. Do we have anything like that now?

Katelyn, SHAME ON YOU!! Being a mom, I would be very angry with my kids, and they would be tethered to me after a stunt like that! This is awful girl! You need a good grounding for not touching base with your family when you knew they were worried and looking for you! You should have to pay for monies spent needlessly, when you could have picked up a phone! Some sort of repercussions need to occur here! To her parents, I'm sooooo Happy She is safe and sound! Thank Goodness for that!
