Have you ever tried to run away or hide from a problem? What was the ultimate outcome? Write about a time that you or someone you know tried to avoid something.

yes, the outcome was not as good as i thought it would be.

Running away from your problems leads to more and more problems. You lose sight of who you could've been if you'd actually committed to something, or stuck it out when the going got tough. Instead, you create a world that you have to tip-toe through because it's full of land mines that haven't been dealt with.

ive ran away from many problems and there was never a good income me and my friend had a major fight and instead of fixing it i ran and hid from it and that lead to misleading departure we were no longer friends and stopped communicating

some Teens also may run away to try to escape worries like having problems with school, being bullied, coming out as gay, or dealing with an unplanned pregnancy. Alcohol or drugs also can play a role in teens’ running away. Often, teens may run away because of emotional, physical, or sexual abuse at home.

When you run away from all of your problems, you eventually run from yourself. You forget the person you could be if you stayed in one place, worked through your downfalls, accepted your shortcomings and then overcame them. You forget that there’s a version of you who is reliable and passionate and strong.
