What would you think of a son in his 20s wanting to move into the backyard garage who has CP?

What would a person or mother think of a male in his 20s who has CP and Terrets moving into the garage unattached to the house? A guy friend of mine is in his mid 20s and still lives at home due to his disibility.

Even though becuase of his problem he has not met any girls if he did meet one he could invite her inside.





He wants to move into the backyard garden shed/garage. He doesn't have a stable enough job to move out of his parents house. His parents are okay with this.



The building does not have plumbing inside which would not bother him. Due to his problem he makes noises at night and can use some space from his parents. While his mother has a close relationship with him she still wants to set curfews of when he would have to be inside the garage/garden shed.



He would get tons of self esteem that he sort of has his own place with his own door to the outside.



What do people think?

I think it would be up to his parents to deal with this situation. And it does not matter what others think about the outcome.
Reply:in prison they have bathrooms in their cell so it's not improsionment. i don't think it's a problem at all but you would need to have the vuilding checked for code regulations and such. in a way it's a good idea when it seems like there aren't any. it's a way to help empower him while letting the parents still be close. sadly he probably needs a lot fo care and his mom is just the person for that!!
Reply:I think it's fine, if the garage is suitable as a "guest cottage" .. a young man needs a bit of independance..



As for his tourettes syndrome, talk to his mother and tell here there is a device, which is worn in the ear, that seems to stop the symptoms of tourettes, without drugs. His doctor will be able to order the device for him. There was an article on ABC's 20/20 not long ago about this.
Reply:A garage isn't a livable space. I would advise against it until they can put some household amenities in there. Not to mention, better insulation, ventilation, etc. It is not healthy for somebody to live in that environment.
Reply:thats ok i guess, but if i had a kid with something like that id want him closer, but he's 20 and couldnt reallydo any harm being so close to the house
