If your younger brother (27M) ran away from home and cut ties off kinship to follow his desires and pursue a lifestyle of sin, would you keep trying to find or reason with him?

Initially, the first 3 months we tried to get through to him, but lately we’ve stopped reaching out because he ignored or blocked our many attempts to contact him through different means.

Sometimes, I wonder if it might be worth hiring a private investigator that would cost £200-£300 because if they locate him and I speak to him in person, perhaps I can reason with him. However, is there any point if he clearly doesn't want to be found and can just cut off his ties of kinship.

What would you do? Still look for him or just carry on with life?
