AIBU In not wanting my learning disabled daughter to have to travel 3 hours a day to a job?

[ElectricalBanana]

i put this on AIBU and they suggested i put it on here

We want DD to get a job! She has autism and is classed as a vulnerable adult. She is 21.

She has a work choice advisor and this lady has found her a part time job at pound land in a town nearly 30 miles away. It's bus ride of 90 mins there and 90 mins back. Dd has diabetes on top of her learning disabilities.
Dd was informed of the job by email so I emailed the advisor and questioned the suitability of this job, I highlighted her learning issues, the cost of the bus journey and the time taken to get there and back.

Advisor got back to me and said this would be a part time job and would be good for dd and give her good work experience. She would also get wtc to bolster her wages.
Also there was a fund for dd and this money would be removed on Tuesday if a job had not been found by that day - and that I feel is the driving force in this.

I really don't like the idea of her being so far away from home, I cannot get her quickly if she gets stuck etc.
am I being unreasonable not to be happy with this arrangement ?

Hi electrical I commented on your other thread, I really hope you get some useful advise on here.

thank you....DH is looking on t'interweb to see if we can say no thanks. We do have a plan where she just throws a wobbly on the bus with the lady (oh yes the lady says she will go on the bus with her first time) and demands she needs to go home.

we sent her to get some potatoes from the corner shop today. she went to a different shop not the one i asked her to go to and was surprised it was closed...(it was after 4pm) she then went to the local just on the end of the street shop and text me again to ask if i wanted new or ordinary spuds. i text back saying ooh new would be lovely. got a text right away saying there are no new spuds.....

this is my life....if i dont give her to the second instructions we get chaos. a general "nip to the shop and get me some potatoes" ended up with an hours toing and froing texts and walking in the opposite direction to the bloody corner shop!!!

and they want her to travel 90 mins on a bus!!!!

Can you show evidence that she is too vulnerable to make this journey unescorted? GP report etc, does she have much experience with travelling on public transport alone?

UPDATE!! DD has been offered a 16 hour contract at a local card shop (in town 15 mins walk away) a temp contract to June 14.

She will still be supported by the workchoice advisor.

So this weekends meltdowns have ended and i have a happy DD!!

Thanks everyone for your support...even my OH has said you have all been fab and not the nest of vipers he had heard you were....wink

Yay!! No vipers on here electrical

Hope your Dd loves her job, come back for an update when she is settled
