Isiah is stuck between a rock and a hard place, imo. He desperately wants to get out of Florida and go to school, far enough away from his parents but close enough to his gp (A’s mom and SD?) If he doesn’t get scholarships, he won’t be able to go? Idk the USA school system, as A has threatened not to financially help him. If he doesn’t go to school, he won’t be able to get the kind of job that pays enough to manage Ab’s affairs when A&P kick the bucket. If he does manage to go, then he is going to find that he is a very, very little fish, in a huge fishpond, and all the carrying of his family’s ‘struggles’ cue mom, could easily distract him etc. A&P keep saying Ab will be set up for life, but how do they know? Look at what has happened to the world in a short few months, how is the world economy going to survive, if people don’t have jobs and earning an income! Also, as S is an ‘approved’ respite worker, living in, why can’t she do the home schooling, I don’t think JSA cares who is actually doing the lesson, and as I have said before, S should be up at 0700 to get Ab up, bathed, breakfasted and on to an activity, then the others can rotate through the day, on a four schedule, so that there is structure.
