adult isn’t intelligent, and can’t hold a job or learn how to drive.

Best answer:

Answer by oilfeild trash
dont put them in a group home leave them in ur home since they are a part of youre family my aunt and uncle put their daughter in one and she was beaten severly they brought her home and have never looked back. Leave them in youre home and love them having a special child is special belive it or not they do have feelings even if they can not express it

Answer by a_mom
Isn’t your child assigned a social service worker? My sister has Down’s Syndrome and shortly after she turned 19 or 20 the state began checking up on her every year. The worker will ask both my parents and my sister what they want. They always ask if she would like to move out. They will help find a suitable home for the young adult. I would ask other parents what the group homes are like. I have worked at some that are great and some that are horrible places. It all depends on the workers. Good luck I know this is a difficult decision.
