This includes assumptions about still living with parents, having video game addictions, and not being able to handle adult finances. One of the most concerning assumptions is that the Aspie grew up in a home that was knowledgeable about it and supportive, “reaching out to teachers to explain why the assignment was late”.
These are not situations relevant to all, but come across as biased and thus are not helpful if you cannot relate to these conditions.
This is specifically written for individuals with Aspies who still reside at home with their parents.
