Fault of the Obummer Economy or Plain Ol’ *Loosers*?
Bloomberg News ran this little blurb recently about the rise of young adults moving back in with their parents.
I understand that people born before 1960 had this mentality that as soon as you finished college, you’d live on your own or live with roommates and if you lived with your parents, you’d be shunned by your peers. However with this legitimate Great Recession, I can understand some of those numbers, some would be safe to say they are the “llooossser” types. Also, lets not forget that the numbers of people with autism disorders born from 1987 to 1992, are turning that magic number of 21, and as soon as they turn 21*, they are out of school and in many cases out of work because the work programs are owned by the school systems.
*Minimum IDEA regs for services end at 21. Only 10 of the 50 States (the Liberal ones like NY, Mass, California have it at 22 and states like Michigan, IDEA cutoff is 26 believe it or not!)
I do get sensitive because in this Bloomberg piece, they do show a bias towards men that are moving back in, and of course that’s offensive to my group because there are stereotypes that anyone with autism are those lost looking little boys or just a plain old socially stupid PDD types or just men acting like regular jerks while they have their Asperger label. I came from a filthy rich town and I was very scared of finding my significant other because of the stereotypes of society, its like who wants to date a guy whose on the lower class side and suffers with a brain disorder?
I don’t trust the MSM that much, and I know there is an anti male bias to many of their reports (don’t forget how they had put focus on the autism stories a few months ago and how they put emphasis of how the boys have higher rates than girls – there goes that stupid boy innuendo again!)
