[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]And while I get that her asperger's is not her fault, it can cause her to be a bit flakey. Leave electrics on, take long showers, be forgetful about a lot of things. And as another pp mentioned, yes, breaking things is probably inevitable.[/b] She will not have a car, and while public transportation will be used a lot of the time, I imagine I will be driving her around a lot. Some of it is nature, much of it is nurture, and my personal experience of a 19/20 year old is very, very different than her reality. I was on my own and taking care of my parents at that age. [/quote] OP I think you buried the lede on this thread. The ASD is going to be the issue. Sure, Asperger's is not her fault - but if you take her in, don't enable or make excuses for her. How much do you know about ASD? You can find out a lot in the Special Needs forum. [/quote]
