A Very Brave Decision

This helps to explain why Mark has decided to leave home at the young age of 16. Just like his brother Eric, Mark’s parents were involved in some pretty shady business, and Mark didn’t want to turn out like them. He left his family home to live in a squatter’s house not because he was a rebellious teenager, but because he was a responsible one!
