[quote=Anonymous]FWIW this will sound harsh, but the worst case scenario is not that he’d be in your basement. It’s that he’d be homeless. I have an autistic disabled child myself and have had to adjust my thinking on what her future might look like. There are satisfying fulfilling lives that don’t involve the typical path to adult independence. There are also lots of us out here who will not judge you or your family members at all for taking an alternate path to success. Life has twists and turns. So he’s not applying to internships. That’s okay. It sounds like he’s being a reasonably good son and brother and is not involved in anything self destructive (drugs, crime, etc.). Thank goodness that he’s safe and stable. Good job so far. He can take this at his own pace. He doesn’t have to follow the typical path. [/quote]
