[QUOTE="Despairing Mom, post: 740583, member: 23412"] My adopted daughter is 21. She has an IQ of 80 and has ARND, ADHD, and Conduct Disorder. My husband and I have paid for her rent for the past 3 years. She is only qualified to work minimum wage jobs and can't get along with roommates who could help pay the rent. My daughter is being evicted in 30 days because the police are frequently at her apartment for fighting and partying. She isn't an alcoholic or addict at this time. She can't move back into our home and we are financially exhausted with paying her rent. My husband and I never applied for her to receive disability benefits because we knew that she needed to work as many hours as possible to stay out of trouble. Now I wish we would have applied for her to get disability benefits because she would eventually qualify for housing (but this will take years). She has a low IQ and very little common sense. She will not survive very long as a homeless, borderline mentally retarded (intellectually impaired) female. I've tried multiple charity organizations and homeless shelters in her area and they all have long waiting lists. [/QUOTE]
