Hey,
I'm new on here and just wanting a chat and some advice on a few things.
My step son is 17 years old. He's 18 in September. At the moment he only has a clinical diagnosis as they don't diagnose until he's 18 years old. We can get the ball rolling now to get a diagnosis once he's 18. Is there any benefits out there that he can apply for as he won't leave the house and get a job? He only goes out with us. We do have to be carefully when he goes out on his own as he can be a risk to himself. Child benefit is now stopping for him too so now we get less for him. He's going back to college in September but I don't no what to do if he's still not got a job once he leaves full time education.
How do we support him.?
Thank you.
