[QUOTE="AppleCori, post: 648630, member: 16024"] One thing I have noticed from the stories on this board is that sometimes the government services will try first and foremost to put the burden back onto the family. When the family puts their foot down and says 'I can't do this anymore' often they find that social services with have no choice but to take over. It is time for you to demand that he get the services due him, as a person with an intellectual disability. This is what we pay taxes for. He probably needs to get on the list for emergency housing. You can't pay his bills anymore. Some places have car services for people with disabilities. Bus or taxi. Paid by the state. I don't know anything about how to find these services, but if you post a new thread asking about social services for people with needs that your son has, maybe you will get some answers. Don't give up. Keep asking. Start here. [/QUOTE]
