[quote=Anonymous]As the parent of a SN young adult who participates in a similar program, I beg you to consider how your departure will affect your partner. My kid has dealt with a lifetime of rejection and missed social opportunities due to her autism. Why would you sign up for a program designed to help those that struggle and then back out as soon as it gets hard? Can't you fake enjoyment for a couple of hours a month? If you back out, come up with a great excuse why you can't do it anymore, provide a time of transition, and know that you're probably leaving your partner scarred from yet another rejection. Don't ever volunteer for something that involves this sort of personal relationship again.[/quote]
