How can I cope up with autism and psychics son?

NAS78178

Respectfully,

When my son, who is 19 years old and has autism and learning difficulties, moved back to our home in 2021, we didn't receive any support. Since then, we've been unable to find the right support for him. We are currently receiving 15 hours a week from the council, but the support workers we're getting aren't fully qualified in working with autistic individuals.

Since she promised him a message from his "soulmate" and other such promises, Smith has become increasingly enraged. I'm worried that this "astrologer" may have threatened my son in some way, and I fear for his mental health if we refuse to give him the money to pay for these "psychics." If we refuse to give him the money to pay for them, he throws big tantrums.

Please help me get this sorted before it's too late. I'd really appreciate your help. Thank you.

  • Its not really clear who this person is, are you saying a support worker is seeking money from him?  They shouldn't be doing that, it sounds like abuse, and would be something to report to the providers, or police - this may be happening to other vulnerable people.   At the very least it sounds like he is being stressed out by them, even if that person thinks they are 'helping' him, so its not good.  Best to find something or someone beneficial he can give his money to.
