Today we're supposed to flip it around and ask YOU guys a question. This one is easy for me, though most of you won't have any advice.
Give me all your tips and tricks for runaways ... "runners," as we call them in the land of deeply hurt children.
We have our plans laid out and are working in conjunction with our therapist, but I know I am most successful when I have a WEALTH of ideas and approaches at my disposal.
You can also email me privately at christinemoers [at] hotmail [dot] com.

This is my first time to your blog. I read this post and the post before it. Keep your boundries set and pray like there is no tomorrow. God meets them where they are. The timing just has to be right. Keep sticking to the ground rules laid out. The waters are being tested and if she sees you faulter on those rules it will get worse. I'm praying for you and your family.
I watched a video by Nancy Thomas that said something along the lines of, "Call your therapeutic respite provider and let them pick up the child when found. "If it's too hard to be with your family, I will be glad to have you carry logs and sweep floors at my house."
no advice here. Not an issue....yet. Will be praying tonight for her, though. and for you.
you are a freaking awesome mom for cuddling her and action loving her after being rejected all day long!!!! Hang in there!!
Sometimes I think they want to know if you care enough to hunt them down. If it happens openly, like, "I'm leaving" and out they go, you could say, "well I'm coming with you." Sends the message that you are "with them" no matter what. Plus, it will probably take them by surprise a bit. I've never personally done this, but heard of it working wonders for others. If they do it sneaky style I'm not sure what would work except looking until you find them and then letting them know how much you missed them and were worried when you couldn't find them. It's a tough one.
Yeah...no advice. All I can think is.....CRAP ...I hope we don't travel this road and if we do....I hope people will be praying for us. So I am praying. Right this minute and every single time the Lord brings you to mind....which is often :)
My "runner" ran last June and has since moved out, gotten engaged, gotten married (in Dec), dropped out of school, stopped walking with the Lord and stopped talking with me.That's alot to do in 10 months. My biggest regret is not going out and getting him and dragging him home immediately. Circumstances prevented us from doing that because he was staying with someone who lied and told us he wasn't there & wouldn't stay there. The only thing I can do is pray he turns around before it is too late & he gets in trouble. We have told him we won't bail them out. IT HURTS SO BAD. I miss him. I know our relationship will never be the same but right now I don't know how to relate at all. We used to be close. Now my heart aches for him. Pray with us, thanks.
Well, our 16 yr old is (was?)a runner. I lost count how many times she ran in the past year. Every single time I searched, called and searched until I found her. I ran parents who would lie for her! I called the police too. That started a paper trail that involved the community now. She is in residential right now because she wanted to get pregnant and was still running. I don't know what else to do. Pray, pray, pray. The night before she was to enter residential she called me out of the blue on a run. I talked her into letting get her, then we woke her up the next morning to take her in. I know it was divine intervention.
Please post what you learn! This isn't something we've had a problem with yet but I am aware that it could be an issue in the future.
I tried the techniques I read of but it became really stressful and a safety issue (running into the street, etc), so now I have to restrain/hold/hug. That actually reduced the stress of worrying about her safety. It helps to start at the beginning at the first sign of an escalation, before it gets out of hand. Also a change of meds, esp. adding Risperidone, it helps her think before she acts. Good luck, its hard.
