[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 402416, member: 1550"] That's why I'm planning for my high functioning autistic son to continue to have supports into adulthood. He may be able to do school work, but he would do the same thing...hand over his food stamps and let others take advantage of him. Aspies really do have a bad disability and, sadly, often others (like gfgmom's boyfriend) don't see it...they just see a kid they think is lazy. He probably should not be living on his own. He needs community supports for his own safety in my opinion. Most Aspies are such sweet, giving people...they'd give their shirt off their backs even if they were freezing to death. I don't believe Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) kids or adults can usually make good decisions for themselves and I think they grow up much later (if they are high functioning enough to completely grow up). It's so discouraging to read this, and I hope things turn out better than it seems that they will. Take care. [/QUOTE]
