Fetal Alcohol Syndrome Support Group
Fetal alcohol spectrum disorder (FASD) describes a spectrum of permanent and often devastating birth-defect syndromes caused when the pregnant mother consumes alcohol. The main effect of fetal alcohol exposure is brain damage, which can be caused during any trimester, because the fetus's brain continues to develop throughout the entire pregnancy.
My son 17yrs, has Fetal Alcohol Spectrum,I just like to know from DS Friends, that deal with teenagers. What are there behaviors they deal with and how they handle them. Like what kind of consequences do one should give to them. How much freedom should one give and for how long. Plus when do one allow them to start dating and if so what would be the boundaries. I do have a good understanding about FAS but I just thought I would see what others in my situation have done in raising their teenager with FAS. Any feed back would be greatful.Frances

I gave my 2 week notice last Friday 13th. Now to join you fine people in a life of leisure and nothing else to do but to look out for myself....is it just me or does that sound pretty boring? My goal was to live to retire and I guess having to take early retirement because of health reasons wasn't exactly the way I had planned things. I just can't stay in that building that is reeking mildew...
