Just over 200,000 children are arrested in the UK each year, according to Home Office statistics. The average age of the children arrested is between 10 and 17 years old. Children at this age will usually not be aware of their rights when arrested.
For example in Michigan, although the legal age of majority is 18, the court has no jurisdiction to force a teen runaway under the age of 17 to return home, so it is unlikely that the police would even get involved. In other states, like Texas, running away is considered a status offense.
