ON “ADRIFT IN AN ADULT WORLD”

Michael Manning said: “Adam’s mental health is poor, his social skills limited, his communication often painfully difficult and monosyllabic. He doesn’t really have friends as much as acquaintances who will tolerate him, people who will come round to his digs, trash the place in a drunken party, and then leave Adam to pick up the pieces. These “friends” are noticeably absent when Adam is on the streets with nowhere to go. In so many ways this young man is still a child, adrift in an adult world he can’t navigate or survive.”
