@roycroftmom DH and I have been talking about that for 20 years. We have some friends in the tech industry who claim DS could have a good job right now and he’d fit right in. But he wants to explore college options first. (FWIW, my brother is somewhat similar and he maintained his sanity by being self-employed as a networks administrator.)
@gearmom, I’m the laziest cook on the planet (Trader Joe’s or bust!), so I am humbled by the kid’s soups. He makes it up as he goes (often with unconventional combinations) and they’re usually quite good. His other domestic specialty: folding his laundry, origami style. 
Now if only we can get him to clean his bathroom on a regular basis.
