Your teen is moving toward adulthood, but how do you support independence when readiness develops unevenly?

For parents of autistic and twice-exceptional (2e) adolescents, the transition from high school to young adulthood can feel overwhelming. The Breakaway: A Parent’s Guide to Transitioning the Autistic and Twice-Exceptional Adolescent Into Young Adulthood provides a clear, compassionate roadmap to help your family move from uncertainty to confidence.

Drawing on decades of experience working with neurodivergent teens and their families, Thomas W. Welch offers practical strategies for guiding your young adult toward greater independence, purpose, and self-advocacy.

Inside you’ll discover how to:

  • Support level 1–2 autism and 2e teens through the crucial transition to adulthood.
  • Build essential executive-function and daily living skills.
  • Create individualized college, career, and employment plans that fit your teen’s strengths.
  • Foster self-confidence, resilience, and meaningful independence.
  • Match support, challenge, and responsibility to your young adult’s developmental readiness.

With relatable stories, planning tools, and actionable advice, The Breakaway bridges the gap between adolescence and adulthood for neurodivergent families. Whether your young adult is preparing for college, entering the workforce, or still building the consistency and self-management skills needed for greater independence, this guide equips you with insight and structure to support growth at a pace that can be sustained.

If you’re ready to help your autistic or twice-exceptional teen move toward adulthood with greater confidence, resilience, and direction, this is your guide to supporting a more successful transition into independent life.
