I am a parent of a 22 year old with autism. I am very concerned that they will never live independently. Have been working with child and a therapist. Therapist has made several suggestions for child to take/do. If I remind (practically constantly) the child to do one of these suggestions, some of them get done. If I don't mention one, it just doesn't get done. What is my role here? Therapist last visit said child should do them on their own without my reminding them.
What impact will this have on the end result? Is it common to let the child take responsibility on their own? I'm concerned that child won't be able to support themselves.
Hope I'm making sense.
