Well, I speak to a lot of homeless people. Maybe your cousin is trans or has some other identity issue or a disability that makes it hard for him to stay with people. What started him living on the street? Why did he initially move out of your aunt and uncle’s house and at what age? Are they religious? Does he have trauma with caregivers such as sexual assault? How do you know he doesn’t?
And fine, let him live on the streets and camp if he doesn’t want free and clear housing. People camp all the time. He shouldn’t be harassed for it. We are animals, we belong outside anyway if we so choose. I know people who have hiked for months across America. There are people who live in the middle of nowhere in Alaska. Why should people be prevented from living freely? Think throughout history - the idea is preposterous. The only reason we force institutionalization is to get slave labor.
He’s just mentally ill, refuses help and just can’t handle the responsibility of just living. It’s sad, but yeah it’s like he craves the homelessness and lack of any expectations maybe? His parents are well off so he has everything he needs at home, but he doesn’t want it. He’s been taken to mental health professionals and programs but he doesn’t want to take part. He would honestly just rather live under a bridge, I don’t know what it is.

So you don’t know why and are just speculating.
I know more than you
So much arrogance and yet you have no firsthand accounts from your cousin, from his pov, why he doesn’t want to live at home
