[QUOTE="Lil, post: 656897, member: 17309"] Then they put him on a plane or a bus home. That's it. No different than he is now except he won't have a job to go to...and he might be able to get his job back if he gives them as much notice as possible. People he hangs around with, I'm surprised he hasn't in the town he's grown up in. You know, I KNOW it's scary. I know it's a different city with no one he knows. But he went to college, in a different town (small town, but different) with no one he knew. He doesn't even have to leave campus. He's 20 years old, not 10. Why can he not see this as an adventure? Worse case scenario, he hates it. He gets sent home for free. He's still homeless. Best case, he gets a good job and a new life. Things go wrong because he's an idiot. You don't just sit around doing nothing and expect life to treat you right. You can't not work and still have money. You can't hang around with irresponsible criminals and druggies and have them be responsible when you need them. Why the heck can he not see this? Well that's not going to happen. :( [/QUOTE]
