[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 267983, member: 1514"] Hi ML, How old is J again? It is so hard when adult kids live at home. As you can see by my profile, my oldest still lives with me so I so understand the dynamics. He isnt my SO's bio kid but since we have been together since Billy was two, well he might as well be his dad. Billy's bio dad has only seen him a handful of times and never supported him. Tony is his real dad in every way that counts. With Billy we dont know if or when he will move out. We truly believe he is some form of high functioning Aspie and it is just enough to make things difficult for him. He doesnt drive, he doesnt date and he is socially inept. I dont know how he would manage on his own. He is a good kid though overall. But that is the thing...he will be 28 on thursday...lol. He does pretty much what we ask him but only what we ask him. He cant be relied on to take the initiative to clean up just because he sees a mess. If I say wash the dishes...he only washes dishes...not silverware or pots and pans. Nor does that mean clean the kitchen! It is maddening to me...lol. He does help out though with money if I ask. If he has any money and we need it for groceries or a bill...its ours. He is very good that way. [/QUOTE]
