It is quite a journey guiding and mentoring my now 20 yr old son with autism. He has breakdowns, loses his temper, gets very frustrated. I try to push him towards socializing with others his age. He is taking a full schedule at college, but does not socialize with others. However, when he masks, he speaks so intelligently to anyone and they are impressed. He becomes exhausted after his encounters with other people. All I want is for him to be able to make a living and take care of himself. This clip is very enlightening.

[@hadotonini1189]

I really admire them for doing that. It's good to let your other children to strive for the best in lives without putting your responsibility and burden to them. Most parents do the complete opposite where they expect at least one of their children to carry all the family's burden.

Why do you appreciate that? That his siblings won't help is not a good thing. You really think workers will treat him as good😂 His quality of life will free fall and if God is good, he will follow his parents shortly afterward. If not, then he will be neglected and given rudimentary care until he dies....that God his siblings don't have to help.🙄😒

[@jiaminsee283]

@@moosepatil5946 You clearly don't have any empathy for the siblings then. They didn't choose to be born into a family with an autistic sibling. The expectation on them would mean they lose their right to live their own lives to the fullest. How do you know if they don't check in on him at all?

[@moosepatil5946]

@jiaminsee283 So what. They are a part of the family. No one gets to choose their family, but if he was more able bodied, they would find a way to help. But because he requires a higher level of care, his siblings get to opt out? Shut up, your empathy is exclusively for the siblings and not this man who will not have a quality life once his parents die. His parents did it for 40 years, and his siblings can figure out how to help him, for his end of life care.

[@jiaminsee283]

​@@moosepatil5946 I empathise with everyone. And if he were more able bodied, they further wouldn't have the obligation to put him before themselves. I voice out for the siblings because they are almost always expected to take full responsibility and care for their disabled sibling to the point, they prioritise the sibling before themselves. Which isn't wrong, but so sacrificial. I hope siblings who see this video and stumble upon this comment, realise that their willingness to help care for their disabled sibling is a very admirable and selfless act, not obligatory.
