Thank you both. We should also add that B2 has Tourette Syndrome, so he tends to obsess and fixate on certain things.

We also think that he's been sheltered from some things in life, such as the realities of living fully independently. Our mother felt all kinds of guilt once she'd realized she'd given birth to a child with special needs, and in some ways she overprotected him. She made him stay in high school until he turned 21 because state law allowed it. Since he'd repeated first grade, he ended up staying in high school for two extra years. He took a vocational program and studied baking, but he never used what he learned later on.

What he does have going for him is that he's an ENFP with a lot of friends. He's well-liked and active in the community. So he has people he can go to for support and activities that keep him busy.

As for apartments and roommates: Yes, we've been talking to him about it. He's going to do some preliminary research online. We told him that it would be cheaper to have a roommate, but he says he doesn't want one for now. (Which all goes to prove the unfeasibility of sharing the house, BTW.) We and B1 will keep the roommate / apartment dialogue open with him.
