From the best-selling author of Asperger's Rules! and Asperger's Teens comes Asperger's and Adulthood. Blythe Grossberg brings more than 15 years experience working with Asperger's patients to deliver this definitive guide for adults living with Asperger's syndrome.
Thinking about moving out on your own? Ready to land your first job? Unsure how to navigate social scenes when you have Asperger's? Designed for the newly launched Aspie adult, Asperger's and Adulthood provides supportive solutions-based strategies for navigating the ins and outs of balancing Asperger's syndrome with career goals, dating, social settings, and more.
Adulthood is complicated for anyone, though it can be especially overwhelming for someone living with Asperger's. Thankfully, Asperger's and Adulthood presents targeted strategies from learning specialist Blythe Grossberg to help young adults with Asperger's kick-start careers, cultivate healthy relationships, and create independent paths as maturing adults. Grossberg lends her expertise by providing an Asperger's road map - pointing out potential obstacles and offering valuable how-tos for thriving in the world.
This book also helps loved ones gain a deeper understanding of what it means to live with Asperger's syndrome. Whether you're listening for yourself or someone you know, Asperger's and Adulthood helps you develop deeper insight for tackling life challenges, with:
- Step-by-step strategies for entering the workforce and tips to translate your talents into a career
- Helpful scripts for managing small talk, job interviews, and first dates
- Practical tips and budgeting checklists for establishing your independence
- Real-life Asperger's stories on finding friends and landing jobs
- Handy how-tos about stimming, and how to adopt more discreet comforting behaviors
The truth is, even with Asperger's, you can do whatever you put your mind to - and Asperger's and Adulthood outlines the tools and strategies to help you achieve a full and rewarding adult life.

Not for adults.
Maybe you give this book to a an early to late teen to prepare them for adulthood? For adults, it’s pretty useless and mis marketed. Audio isn’t to blame but I’ll be asking for money back -could tell pretty quickly we were staying in shallow end of pool.

Asperger's and borderline intellectual functioning
This narrative seems to be designed for people who have Borderline Intellectual Functioning in that the sentences are simple, as if one were speaking to a child. What if you're an engineer? This is a Jack and Jill Reader format. I found it intellectually insulting.

This is specifically written for individuals with Aspies who still reside at home with their parents.
In the first Chapter and will likely not continue. There are a lot of assumptions about the reader/listener’s situation and speaks to them as if they fit within that box.
This includes assumptions about still living with parents, having video game addictions, and not being able to handle adult finances. One of the most concerning assumptions is that the Aspie grew up in a home that was knowledgeable about it and supportive, “reaching out to teachers to explain why the assignment was late”.
These are not situations relevant to all, but come across as biased and thus are not helpful if you cannot relate to these conditions.

ADULTHOOD WITH ASPERGERS IS CHALLENGING!
I found this book to address many areas that an adult with Aspergers may needs to learn how to act or respond now that he is an adult with different expectations of him .

Pandering and Ableist
I get it Dr. Grossberg has all the credentials in the world but that does not mean she has any clue how to talk to people on the spectrum and this book is a clear example of that. She regularly uses idioms I had to look up a few of them myself this is something I have always had trouble with. Her "advise" in way to many situations is just hide your disability to make other people more comfortable. So it is okay to ask a person in a wheelchair to act like they can walk just so I can feel more comfortable. I think not. I finished the book looking for a sentence or paragraph that wasn't offensive sadly I didn't find it. It is clear why she is so quick to recommend the hate group Autism Speaks. Save time and money Steer Clear of this one.

Extremely Basic
I was hoping for something with a few more Asperger’s specific strategies than just basic “how to adult” advice that applies to pretty much everyone. Disappointingly overly simplified.

Perfect for our family with a young adult
We listened to it as a family and every bit of it was spot on. We could relate to all the scenarios and even the scenarios we have not reached. I believe books like these will help the young adult in our family grow and prepare for the future.
