In Minnesota, the number of 18- to 21-year-olds in shelters has doubled in the past couple years. It seems that more and more twin city teens are living from house to house or under bridges or anywhere they can. Most are from families who get evicted and don't have enough money to support their 18-21 year old son or daughter so they leave them to fen for themselves. Its hard to picture a 17 year old out on the streets but its very common nowadays. Families just dont have the funds to support the older children so they give them an option of getting a job or getting out of the house.
