Abstract
This study explored disabled people’s reflections and experiences regarding the challenges they faced when negotiating transitioning to adulthood. It was informed by critical disability studies and youth studies. Four focus group interviews were conducted with altogether 21 participants, 10 men and 11 women with different impairments. A constructivist grounded theory approach was applied to categorise and synthesise data. Participants had faced a myriad of barriers while transitioning into adulthood, such as inaccessible environments, ableist ideas about disabled people as being dependent and childlike, lack of expectations and inadequate supports. Participants resisted these ableist ideals but simultaneously underscored their want to aspire transitional norms in order to live a valued adult life. The importance of having real choices and opportunities was pivotal. The findings underline the importance of dismissing the ableist ideas that persistently exclude young disabled people. Acknowledging different ways of being and doing is key at times of transitioning.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
