[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 7190, member: 1550"] If he has Aspergers, these kids can be brilliant and so clueless that it drives you nuts, but their brains are wired differently than ours. My friend's 29 year old son has an IQ of 160, is a college grad, and never held a job. he's on Disability, and he and his wife (yes, wife that he met online, who lived in Chile...lol) live with her. He can't hold a job to save his life, and she is getting fed up with him, and doesn't understand Aspergers. I would find out if he has it, and then educate yourself and him on what it is so that you can work on helping him function in a world that probably confuses him. There are some great support boards for adult Aspies. Wrong Planet is the one I love the most (you can do a search for it). I go there often myself, as I suspect AS along with my bipolar, and my own son has high functioning autism. Good luck! [/QUOTE]
