[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]FWIW my DD is 30 and is ADHD/ASD/Anxiety disorder and depression. She made it through high school on an IEP ( with lots of tutoring); made it through college but took 6 years, has been employed for 7 years, has her own apartment, drives beautifully, adults at about 80%, has friends but never a boyfriend ... but we are so proud of her.[/quote] This is really sweet and makes me happy to read. I’m the PP with the DH and I will be stealing the phrase “adults at 80%” to say in my head. That is totally my DH but luckily the 20% is usually just annoying and obviously not a dealbreaker. I think adulting at >90ish % is pretty aspirational anyway.[/quote]
