Have your parents themselves threatened that?
My parents were more tolerant than I thought when I dropped out of uni. I thought I'd be homeless too, I really did.
They didn't like it, but they dealt with it. Paying rent definitely helps lol.
Establishing an alternative plan is important.
Try and show them that you're going to do something else, if you're able.
For me this meant getting a job before I officially dropped out. It was a sh***y job, not AS-friendly and I hated it, but it showed them I still had some sense of direction and financial responsibility. In the end I got a better job, and started studying from home.
It depends on your own abilities, of course, but if possible I would say keep yourself busy: always do
something, and try and think about what you want to do next (and how to get there). Your parents will likely be more understanding/accepting of that attitude, especially if they're not willing to acknowledge and support your autism.
