My cousin tried to run away when he was little, he hust have been about six., he pack a little case and made a bundle attached to a stick (think dick wittington) and off he went. His mum intersepted him in the garden and herded him in the house, she told him he could run away but he had to leave everything behind including the clothes he had on. he decided home was better than running away naked! How at 27 he followed his heart and run away to the other side of the planet, but he's happy and in love. |

Aw That's sweet. My older daughter 'left home' when she was about 4 and I'd just told her off. I let her pack her little bag with her new t-shirt, pair of trainers, skipping rope and a book about dinosaurs (the essentials of life obviously!) She got as far as the gate but decided she'd go another day. We photographed the contents of the bag to show her when she was older. The younger one really did run away from home overnight when she was 14. That was a lot scarier. Now they are 21 and 20......one at university and one at home and I could do with the space if they left!! But no signs of either moving out permanently yet. LOL Hope your little ones change their minds before bedtime.....maybe a favourite supper might encourage them to stay. Sue |

My daughter left home for real three weeks ago and is now living in her own home. I miss her because her bedroom here is so tidy. M. |
