The act of getting out of bed requires the use of free will and choice, as does making any choice. Nothing is blown hither and yonder.
Asking us to help make a choice is not the answer, as he must and should do as he chooses, not basing the decision upon what anyone else on earth says, including you or me.
I left home at fifteen with a choice that took 30 seconds to make, have traveled the world, lived to the fullest, and it hasn't hurt me one bit. "Playing it safe" is just not for everyone. Each has their path.
