A child running away signifies the movement of early hopes or nascent cares away from the center of attention. To flee is to seek room from a looming weight. This dream does not portend a loss of purpose, but rather a redirection of what is being nurtured.
The act of putting distance between the self and a threat is the foundation of this movement. An unavoidable reckoning remains a heavy possibility when the flight is interrupted. A successful escape leaves the danger behind. A child running away marks a period where the preservation of a new intention requires space.
For its more general meaning: Dream about kids
I keep having a dream that my son is running home from wherever he is, he’s 7. I keep dreaming that he keeps telling me he just had to come home and so he walks home in the dark or has a cop bring him home.
