Hey welcome to the community! There are lots of parents on here that I hope you get to know, I am physically impaired but everyday I am grateful my parents made me independent. My partner is autistic and I am trying now to give him the same guidance, it is more challenging with a disability you can't see, but good to give him options to explore what they can get out of life.
