"If the boy had a family," Moore continued, "a decent aunt, grandparents, he could live with them without major complications."
Martin began to think hard. The cogs in his brain, though lightly oiled, began to turn faster and faster.
"So since Sid is almost of legal age," he began to think aloud, "enough for him to move out?"
"Sounds simple, right? Lots of kids think it's enough just to get out of the house. They often don't realize that they have to live somewhere, pay bills and eat something. The simple solution 'I'll leave the home' very often ends up with kid becoming either a criminal or a victim. Therefore, it is not enough to run away from home, you must have somewhere to run away. "
So Sid didn't really need much. He may not earn much, but he has enough to eat. The only problem would be finding an apartment for him.
