    Back After 2.5 Years - About Adult Daughter

    Hi Aurora, I don't really have support -- that's one of the reasons why I posted here. My wife can only take so much stress from her stepdaughter (she lived with her for four years and that were a lot of times where her stepdaughter was physically aggressive with her as well as verbally...

    Back After 2.5 Years - About Adult Daughter

    Hi Mary, As she doesn't actually get to spend any alone time with this boyfriend, birth control isn't needed -- although we did try it before just in case but found it caused her to gain a significant amount of weight. Not sure what I can get from reading posts from guys desperate to find...

    Back After 2.5 Years - About Adult Daughter

    Hi Neri and belated Happy Birthday, Thank you for your long and well-thought reply - I do appreciate you taking the time. Yes, you are right on some counts but what is different is that my daughter never got beyond the 4th grade reading/mathematics levels and her emotional IQ is more like a 12...

    Back After 2.5 Years - About Adult Daughter

    Thanks Aspychata. She wasn't living in the home of the boyfriend. The boyfriend lives with his father about an hour away by car and she rarely meets up with him as A) I'm not willing to drive her out there and back as it's out in the countryside with nothing nearby and I don't trust leaving...

    Back After 2.5 Years - About Adult Daughter

    Thanks Forest Cat. The young man's father doesn't like my daughter that much, in the sense of her always calling his son and has even, at times, had his son block her on his phone but then the son unblocks his phone later and the two of them are back "together" again. Unfortunately, this...

    Back After 2.5 Years - About Adult Daughter

    Thank you, Kriss. It's a long road and this is like her only obsession in life (besides going to rock concerts -- which she goes to once or twice a year as a birthday or Christmas present).

    Back After 2.5 Years - About Adult Daughter

    Hi Everyone, I last wrote on this forum about my daughter about 2.5 years ago (May 2021) and A LOT has happened. My daughter is smart when it comes to computers but her intellectual and emotional disabilities make her "act" more like a 12 to 14 year old. She is also looks young and people...

    Autistic Daughter and Online Boyfriends

    Thank you for the information. She has been diagnosed several times and is on a waiting list for another diagnosis. She must be ASD3 but I haven't heard abbreviation before. I have full legal guardianship for her and have handled everything for her over the years as she lacks the capacity (as...

    Autistic Daughter and Online Boyfriends

    Yes, I actually do want for my daughter to have a "normal" relationship with a young man but this man is taking it to an absurd level. He is now saying that he will find an apartment near her and move there so that there is no longer a three-hour train ride and he can simply have a large SUV...

    Autistic Daughter and Online Boyfriends

    Hello Everyone, I'm a father to a 21-year-old autistic daughter whom I love but we are having issues with her in regards to men she's meeting online and then immediately falling in love with. First, some background. My daughter has been chasing after boys since she was 14 and her maturity...
