“”””I have a niece *and* a nephew who have Asperger’s.They’re both in their 30s,highly intelligent but don’t have the first clue what the world is about.””””””

Same here. My nephew easily went through college for engineering. He can’t get a job bagging groceries.

My niece got a job doing some cafeteria work.

It sounds like we could be talking about the same kid. My nephew graduated from the film school at NYU. My sister was warned not to do it but she put out $100,000 in tuition/board (that she didn't have) and I put out $50,000 (she's my kid sister).He's earned about $1,000 in the eight years since he graduated.

Ooops...BTW...my niece has a very serious cardiac disorder (two open heart operations...she almost died the second time) and so she's never worked a day in her life. Sometimes when I look at their lives,and the worry,fear and hardship my sister's endured I start to doubt the existence of a loving God.

But then I stop myself...
