[quote=Anonymous]It depends on the severity of the autism, OP. My kids are supposedly both level 1 ASD, although the psychologist who diagnosed them doesn't like to use those levels, for good reason: my 20 year old is limited in his life and career potential due to his inability to surmount certain issues that come with his autism, namely his lack of social skills and problems with organization and prioritization. He is in college, but cannot use all the resources at his disposal, which is so irritating at times. My 15 year old is mostly just gifted and is perceived to be introverted, but this only marginally impacts her life. [/quote]
