What reasons would a 17 year old girl have to run away? Is she being beaten or raped at home or some shit?
Whats with kids of this generation? It's like if theres ever a problem in life, instead of facing it, you run away, kill yourself, or kill others. All three being fucking stupid solutions. If she has a problem, tell her to seek help. Running from it only gets you into more trouble. Simple as that.
Shit....if you can't handle life as a teenager at that age......what the fuck are you gonna do later on in life? It's only the tip of the iceberg......
