Help! My Brother Would Rather Be Homeless Than Get a Job

Overview

Mia and Kiki say their 30-year-old brother, Forrest, lives in their deceased grandma’s house in a room they call “the cave.” They say he lives in filth, won’t leave the house, is jobless and won’t pay his bills. Mia and Kiki say their mother, Lesli, enables Forrest’s behavior by bringing him food and money. Forrest says his family doesn’t understand how hard it is for him due to his mental disorder, fear of getting sick, and rough childhood with his mom. He also claims he would rather be homeless than get his life together. The family says they’re worried if Forrest continues to be lazy and unmotivated that he will end up on the streets.
