Running awayTwo friends ran away from boarding school. They didn't get too far though - they forgot to check when the last train ran. A teacher found them sitting waiting and drove them back again.
That said, it's not just a thing kids do - the urge to just run is built into all of us. Tell us about the times you've given in and run.

stupid childMy boyfriend once ran away from home to come and see me. The problem was that he wasn't allowed to cross roads by himself, and so spent half an hour before he was discovered missing running round and round the block. He was 6 and I was 5 1/2. I would like to say I go for more intelligent types now, but I'm not so sure that's the case.
I often threatened to run away from home myself when I was a wee lass. My mum would get the suitcase down from the loft and go into the kitchen to make me cheese sandwiches for my journey. When faced with such indifference running away never seemed as much of a good idea.
