More gen Z men live with parents in this city than anywhere in the US. How do they date?

It's wild how fast things change, you know? Like, I was in high school not so long ago and we thought having a job was like, the ultimate goal . Now it seems like it's all about figuring out who you are and what makes you happy outside of just making ends meet . These young guys from Vallejo, they're going through some tough stuff, but I'm glad to see them finding their own ways to navigate things . Foster care? Non-traditional careers? That takes a lot of guts and resilience . We need more support systems in place that acknowledge these unconventional paths are valid too . Can't we just get some decent mental health resources for the youth or something?

I feel bad for these young guys in Vallejo, man... they're being hit from all sides . It's like, one minute they're trying to start their lives, and the next they're struggling to find a place to call home or a job that pays the bills. I get it, the shift to a knowledge economy is real, but can't we do something about it? They're not just any ordinary young folks, they're grown men trying to figure things out in a world that's moving fast and leaving them behind.

And don't even get me started on the street violence thing... it's crazy how something like that can affect someone's life. I'm all for supporting these guys, but we need to be thinking outside the box, you know? Like, Daniel and Kimani are doing their own thing, living with foster parents or whatever, and it's actually working for them. So why not give 'em more options, right?

We gotta get some creative solutions going on here... can't just leave these guys to fend for themselves . We need to be understanding that every single person is different, has their own struggles. And we need to support each other .

man it sounds like Vallejo is just a mess, no one's got a clue what they're doing . these young guys are struggling left and right, can't even find a stable place to call home or a job that doesn't leave them broke after the first month. and on top of all that, they've gotta deal with street violence and harassment? it's like the city's just giving up on them . but you know what's weird? some of these guys are actually finding their own way, like Daniel and Kimani, who are living with foster parents or doing something completely different than what society expects of them. maybe that's the answer, we just need to stop expecting everyone to fit into this one mold and let people find their own path

I feel so bad for these young guys, struggling to adult in a city that's already got its hands full with crime & poverty... like, what can you even do when the jobs don't exist, fam? And yeah, it's wild how quickly they're taking their time growing up - it's like, we need to be supporting them more, not just giving 'em a lecture about responsibility . Street violence & harassment is straight-up unacceptable, though... we gotta do better than that, you feel? And I love how some of these guys are finding their own way - living with foster parents or doing something outside the box... like, who's gonna judge 'em for that, right? We need more support systems in place, not just handouts . It's all about understanding where they're coming from & helping 'em out.
