You need to check out the weekend programs up at the Woodlands in Wexford for your little bro. I mean your parents should do this as they are his actual caretaker. Nice of you to help out but there's ways to get breaks without 100% relying on another family member.

I know about Woodlands! He did summer camps there when we were teens. He is 26 now so I’m not sure what they have for people his age now. He has hab aides take him out for activities during the week.

Oh he's 26. I thought the ID system is supposed to kick in at 21 and provide him a waiver that provides more than a hab aide though. I have a son with autism and he's about to turn 18 and that's disappointing if that's all they're providing people!
