you have got to go to the police. Your parents will beleive you if you tell the police, and so will your boyfriend. I know it isnt as simple as that and I know it will take a lot of courage, but running away with nowhere to go will not solve anything. You deserve to be treated better than that.
I hope things improve for you, I am sure they will xxx write back if you need to xxx

Running away helped my family situation A LOT.
but that's because I have reliable places to stay.

In your case, you should just report it to the police and get your parents in trouble. They deserve it.

running away really wont help unless you have a safe, reliable, secure place to stay
I really felt like that too and tried but didnt get no where

if you have no where to stay and no idea where your going then trust me nothing will change
it will just make things worse

but it sounds serious so you should really tell the police and as -wxyz- said they will believe u
either way tho this sounds like it has to be sorted out
I have had a similar problem and actually still do

tell the police how you feel and how your family are treating you and they should sort something out and support u

good luck! hope things get better for u

I agree with ilovemetal23 you can''t just run away.. where would you go? what would you do? I think you need to go to the Police! They are the only ones that can help you as of now!

You can get arrested for running away, yes. I guess it just depends on where you live. You can where I live. Laws are different everywhere.

But ya, running away really won't solve anything. You'll be hungry and wondering where you are going to sleep tonight will be on your mind constantly. Sometimes home life sucks big butt for teens but you are going to have to suck it up and deal with it. Thats called Harsh reality. It's life and it sucks. It's too late to go to the police about the rape. When your sister starts in on you, ignore her to avoid your mum telling you to shut up. Don't yell back at her. Try to be happy, it's hard sometimes, I remember, but do your best. Do things for your mum to show her you love her. My mum always says, "Kill them with kindness." IT WORKS. Be as nice as you can even if you are upset with them and they will more than likely be nice back.

        And maybe lessen the cares in your way;
        And also, too, to help you to know,
        That in knowing you, many others grow!

 
"Running away" won't solve your situation. However, if there is a child welfare or social services agency in your country then you should consider checking with them. Maybe even moving to live with a relative might be a possibility.

Maybe another alternative is some form of family counseling for your whole family.

If you can't find an alternative, and are religious, try consulting with your local priest or minister.

ok..so let me tell you something.. I was 14 when I ran away for the third time... it ws just me and my dad... my dad and I used to go bowlingevery wednesday and friday until he got this new woman... then he started egnoring me and it hurt.. it hurt so bad that I started doing extacy and coke...I ran away... they can arrest you... well its not really arresting.. but they will take you, search your file... and they will realise that you are a missing persons.. it all depends on your family... if your family files a missing persons case...then yeah they can arrest you and take you back to your parents... but I think after three times they dont bother anymore!! I am 18 now... trust me.. I know these things..
hope it helped (",)
