Correct me if I'm wrong, but autism is a social disorder, right? Everything I've ever heard about it indicates that autistic individuals are just as intelligent as, if not more so, than your average person. So saying that they need to hold your money for you is kind of ???. Like are you going to just go spend it all? Clearly you're smart enough (at least, you seem to be to me?) to make a budget sheet and put numbers in it for fuck's sake.

All good points, but it's perfectly possible to be brilliant intellectually but not have a lick of sense when it comes to managing your money. And some people never do seem to learn from their mistakes. (I say this as someone who has more than once sworn never to overdraw her account again, never ever ever. I haven't done it in eight years, though.)

Not saying this is Jaybie's problem, of course. Unfortunately, it sounds like she has never been allowed a second chance to demonstrate that she's learned from her mistakes.

Well to be fair I've still had trouble saving my money but I think I'm getting a little better now. I'm saving a couple 20 bills and working my way up.

I do wish I got more of a paycheck.

ayrt

Well, it's pretty hard to save much when you get to keep so little.

Yeah ,especially because I do like spending SOME.

(also I find myself freaking out lately when my hours are low. "oh no am I being let go" "do they not need me anymore?" "am I going to be let go after I had one time where I got overwhelmed?" Is that normal?)

If they knew you were putting 10 percent of each paycheck (or even 5 percent) in a savings account, would your parents consent to take half of what's left, instead of taking their half right off the top?

Hmm...maybe.

(I still wouldn't put it past them to say they 'can't trust me' because "something something high school" or something.) IDK

Either that or just be like "But you need to contribute your share to the household." IDK
