wow – the reason I asked is as follows. You have said

– he grew up in normal home

– he wants to hang out on the street and not do anything (essentially, that’s how whatever the problem is is manifesting itself)

So we have a kashe (subject of the last 600 posts), what is the issue (and also probably what is his friend’s issue)?

So I was thinking (it’s a thought – that’s all) as follows:

One of the foundational concepts of Transactional Analysis psychotherapy is the script. That is, the subconcious life plan of the individual.

This is formed early in life (about the age of 6) and goes through various permutations and combinations as the child tests reality and determines their possibilities.

It sounded like your child does not have a script, which would be a psychopathology. Becuase he has told you virtually explicitly that he does not know where he is going.

So he would be now testing a random process of seeing where he will end up in life if he lets go of everything he knew and only sails in unchartered waters
