    I am not surprised he is finding it hard to find part-time work because the job market is very low at the moment the worst it has been for some time.

    Does your son want a diagnosis ?

    Does your son believe he is autistic ?

    Just curious, are you autistic  ?

    Can u get your son on here ?

    you dont have to answer any of my questions,,, it just helps others replying after me
