Fleeing [from] home won't solve teenager's (or teenagers'?) problems

[Mzungu39]

I was sure that flee is used without a preposition. However, I have found some examples with FROM online.Which one is (more) correct ? It's the title of an essay:
Fleeing home won't solve teenager's (or teenagers'?) problems
Fleeing from home won't solve teenager's (or teenagers'?) problems

What about teenagers - plural or singular?

Thank you.

When you follow with the place rather than the thing that you're escaping from, then you don't need a preposition.

They fled the country last night.

Here, you don't need from because the country is the place you run away from. In fact, the phrase flee the country is idiomatic enough that it's unnatural to use from.

We'll have to flee from the police.

Since the police is the thing that's chasing you, you need to use from.

Plural, so teenagers' problems.

Should I add 'like' after look?

No, that would be wrong.

Please quote the source of all text you ask about. It's not enough just to say that you found a sentence online. Thanks.

That title was not found on the net. One of my colleagues made it up, I think.

"Look like" means "resemble" or "being similar in appearance to someone/something" which doesn't fit your sentence.
