[quote=Anonymous]I don’t have anything to suggest, but I wanted to empathize with you. My sister is in her 40s, has never accepted that she so clearly has HFA, is very smart but lacks judgment, lives in a sort of denial, and would never know how to go about getting a salaried job. She is a nanny and lives with my parents. It is very difficult for people on the spectrum who are too high functioning to qualify for programs, group homes, etc. And she can’t afford to live on her own and would never, ever be successful as a roommate. So, I feel for you, OP. It is a very challenging situation. Hugs to you. [/quote]
