Thank you for your explanation. It is legal to tell 18 year olds to leave home without providing for them? Wow. We have to provide for our relatives for life (parents for kids, but kids for parents as well. Well, at least legally โ€“ does not work in all cases.)

I'm aware that homelessness is not restricted to people like the man in the first panel. I'm working in a psychiatric hospital, and finding a place to live for our patients who are no longer capable of looking after themselves is not easy, but usually possible. I wasn't aware people are forced to live in hostels.

I wish you good luck finding a job, long lasting health for your father and a way to keep your home on your own.
