[tri-med] Re: when our children outlive us

Wow, college... that would be awesome.  If he is self functioning, he 
wouldn't need as much as a person who isn't functioning, much less able to 
be independent.  Is a group home very costly?  Is that where 'fairly well' 
functioning children go when they turn 18... I guess it is all so 
subjective and many live at home for eternity.  The transition may come 
when a parent can no longer care for the child maybe?
