Signed on the dotted line

That's what my nineteen-year-old son, Charging Towards Adulthood (CTA) did last week when handed a pen and a lease for an apartment.
The managment company did not ask us to co-sign, which boggles the mind. Who rents to a nineteen-year-old with sketchy employment?
His friend, with the Impossibly Spelled Name (heretofor ISN)is completely financially dependent on his (very wealthy) parents, since he is a student, so they did co-sign for him.
I'm hoping that living with a student, and living blocks away from the university, will rub off on CTA, and he will learn to see the advantages of higher education. He, on the other hand, is very excited to be living in a building with ~100 women in the 18-25 age range, and about 5,000 more within a 3-mile radius! He was practically drunk with testosterone when he pointed out this advantage to me.
My little boy is finally leaving the suburbs.
For now.
