As a parent of young kids, it seems unfathomable to me that one day in the not too distant future I would be angry enough with them or their choices to shove them out into the big bad world on their own.
That’s exactly the situation these 10 teenagers found themselves in, and even though they’re only sharing one side of the story, I think it’s still interesting to hear what it’s like from their perspective.

It would be super duper petty if it was.

3. I would love to hear their reasons.
This seems like a lot of stress for a sixteen-year-old to handle.

2. Those aren’t the kind of parents they deserved.
Unfortunately, that’s just how it is for some kiddos.

1. This just makes me see red.
Your love for your children is not supposed to be conditional.

Yeah, I don’t know. I feel like a lot could be resolved here if the two sides just sat down and had an honest chat.
