Where Do High Functioning Adults With Autism Live?
|
Some young adults in the US have their first taste of independent living after leaving high school. They may move out of their parent’s home and begin living in a college dorm with a roommate or on their own. It may happen when a young adult goes to college or gets a job too far away from where the parents live to commute, or it may happen simply because the young adult
and/or the young adult’s family believes it’s time for more independence.
Our society generally regards “moving out” as developmentally appropriate for 18-30 year olds; however, you may wonder if your autistic adult child will ever be ready for this rite of passage. The majority of high-functioning young adults on the autism spectrum continue to live with a parent or guardian in the first years after high school, but with additional options
available to them, this is starting to change.
