LIFE

Dear Carol,
My 15-year-old sister ran away. I know where she is, but I’m afraid to tell because I don’t want to get in trouble.
—Confused

Dear Confused,
This is a serious situation.

I realize you don’t want to tattle on your sister, but if she’s in danger, speaking up can make a difference—or even save her life.
