Can you leave home at the age of majority despite a mental illness?
If this person can prove they can subsist on their own then there is no reason they can't have their own freedom. Many mentally challenged people live on their own (perhaps some will have someone come in to check on them every so often and this can be done through the State Law or by the family themselves.) If the person is not severely handicapped mentally, then they should be pushed to be as independent as possible. Sometimes people have a habit of babying the mentally challenged and deciding what is best for that person. Take a look around. There are Olympics for the mentally disabled, and many other functions and some even work. If one chooses to take the time to study the mentally challenged they will realize they are a lot more capable of many things than most of us give them credit for. Marcy
Jobs that work with the mentally retarded?
I have been working with mentally challenged adults for almost 2 years now. If you live in a big city, it should be easy to find a job working with mentally challenged, if you live in a smaller area like I do, it can be a bit harder. For one, try job finding sites.. like indeed.com. That is my favorite site to find jobs, very easy to use and a lot of job postings. I actually got my job by going to a highschool job fair my senior year, which would be a good place to look because they try to recruit you because it's such a good thing to do. There are many jobs that you can work with the mentally challenged, like the special olympics, group homes, ect. I work in a group home for mentally challenged adults to help them live as independent as possible and help them with tasks that they can't do by themselves. Now if you are talking about jobs that hire mentally challenged individuals, almost any entry level job. Remember the equal opportunity rule. I hope that gives you some insight. If you are looking for a job to work with the mentally challenged, just look around your area, there are businesses like the one I work for everywhere.

Is it possible to make a 47 yr old male on Social Ass't who is average looking but possibly mentally challenged who fell in love at 1st sight with a 20 year old to understand why he shouldn't date her?
Unless this 20 year old girl is complaining about him bothering her, then it's really no one's business. There are so many misconceptions about mentally challenged people. Some are worse than others and many can live on their own, work eventually, and lead fairly normal lives. He may just like the idea of falling in love and Lord only knows that's all he may have left. It's advisable if he isn't bothering this young woman to stay out of it. To tell him he is mentally challenged beyond a reasonable life is sticking a knife into him and may set him back. In many cases mentally challenged people will fall in love with each other and even marry and be quite happy. He may just get lucky.
