As I am currently in England at the moment and have been busy these past few weeks, I did not really notice it until know.
It does seem that some adults don't want to be the whole mentor thing. However, that seems to be impossible given the circumstances.
Kids will look up to adults even if the adults don't want them too. Sorry, that comes with the territory of living so close together. Also, these kids are mostly likely struggling on their own and to feel like they are unwanted is probably worse.
If Adults want to do their own thing, good for them they should. But don't make the kids feel unwanted, that could only led to bad things. I should know, I had a mother who didn't give two shits about me and I ran away.
