Hey im a 20 year old living with parents, most of you possibly dident know this but i have autism and dyslexia.

Im not allowed to jet a real job because parents dont want me having one and i dont have any means of getting to a job. For some reason im hyperfocused on wanting to make money online and im not quite sure why that is? Ive tried things like surveys but soon found out there worse than slave labor.

I do have ssi but most of it has to go towards my parents, i also heard getting income effects ssi income.

Idk, what would you advise? yes i know i need a hobby aswell in-which i am trying to explore more hobbys.

    sounds like your parents want the SSI

    It’s 2026 and they have a 20 year old that can’t work …

    It’s less likely they want the money and more that they need the money.

    Especially since OP says they’re hyper focused on making money for stuff, it’s a safe bet money is tight like it is for virtually everyone.

    Losing SSI could mean losing their mortgage.

    But if it’s that bad, the family needs to have an honest discussion so OP understands.
