Hello all! I'm also a TWoP refugee, hoping to get involved in a few forums here... (Some of my current favorites include Chicago Fire, Chicago PD, Parenthood, Modern Family, The Mindy Project and The Good Wife).

Yes, Hank is a pretty standard nickname for Henry, at least back in the day. Yes, Erin was a young teen, but don't forget, there was also a Mrs. Voight in the picture at that time. In my mind, Erin and Voight became considerably closer after her death. Don't forget, Justin would have been still a little boy back then, and I could definitely see Hank and Justin falling apart, with Erin trying to hold the household together. Most likely, she would have chosen to stay at the house while taking college classes, so there could be someone around when Justin came home from school, there would be homecooked meals and some semblance of housecleaning, etc. as I highly doubt Voight kept anything like regular hours even then.
