So, if they came along and took your mates house and car etc away from him---
do you think he would be ok with that???????
Because aboriginals didn't have the problem for 50,000 years until the Brits came along - stole their land and destroyed their way of life.
Then, a mere 200 years later - bitch because aboriginal groups can't get it together
so - lets take away your mates house - and take away all the things that make his way of life and see how he performs eh?
Oh - and, btw - if he needs to apply for government services in the future -- get him to read the rules on the internet first - so, he knows what conditions will allow them to help
of course we assume he is internet savvy -- and, if he's not -------- ask him why he isn't - because he's had over 20 years to catch up.
In which case he should have got of his r's and educated himself - no excuses eh?
