[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This man is 21, has never had a job, doesn’t attend college, does nothing. His parents (divorced) pay for everything he does; food, gas, car, phone, clothing. He bounces between his parents houses. What do they each gain from this? Why doesn’t he want to launch? Why do they finance his lifestyle? [/quote] You are clearly ignorant about the world and have no idea of the real life challenges that some children face with mental illness, family hardship, poverty, physical limitations, learning disabilities, childhood abuse, which affect their ability to "launch." In fact I would say that an adult who doesn't understand this is displaying an apparent lack of having launched. I can't imagine being an adult and not having seen enough of the world to know this, you must be incredibly ignorant or lacking empathy. Are there launch programs for adults? [/quote]
