[QUOTE="Mag, post: 85514, member: 227"] Does anyone know if there's a place to help get job placements for difficult children? My son is 17 and with his Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) and receptive language disorder, it would be really difficult for him to get the 'typical' teenage jobs. He got his first job last week, but unfortunately has already been let go....supposedly because they hired somebody full time, but I have an idea from some remarks he said his boss made today that it was in part because he has trouble following too many directions at once or forgetting things. He needs an easy job, just something a few days a week for maybe 3 or 4 hours at a time. I know schools and other places help get jobs for kids with other disabilities, but difficult child doesn't really qualify for that kind of help, and also, since he's homeschooled, we don't have access to guidance counselors, etc. Any ideas for simple, repetitive type jobs or sources for places that might help place him in a job? Thanks [img]:smile:[/img] [/QUOTE]
