[QUOTE="Night Owl Mama, post: 694338, member: 20490"] It is very wrong indeed and every person in that room agreed how unfair it is for young adults like him to fall through the cracks. He was angry at the team but no one there was his enemy, just the message bearers of the reality he is facing. Society has yet to find a way to support these high IQ, low adaptive skill young adults on the spectrum. He does have the added burden of other mental health issues, but I know comorbid conditions with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) are very very common. He is not the only young adult who needs services that don't yet exist. With autism rates rising all the time, he certainly won't be the last! [/QUOTE]
