[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 374068, member: 1550"] There actually isn't much you can do for Fetal Alcohol Syndrome (FAS) other than custodial care...if they truly have the syndrome independence doesn't happen because they have brain damage. You may also consider that Onyxx could have Fetal Alcohol Effects, which could be why she doesn't learn from her mistakes. If BM drank while pregnant with Jett, she likely drank during her pregnancy with Onyxx too. Fetal Alcohol Syndrome (FAS)/Fetal Alcohol Effects (FAE) kids tend to abuse drugs/alcohol, act out sexually, and not be able to learn from their mistakes. Many end up in jail, which is tragic, because unlike defiant kids, they really don't understand why they keep getting into trouble. It's sad...I know some Fetal Alcohol Syndrome (FAS)/Fetal Alcohol Effects (FAE) adults that were adopted...and the pain of their parents. There are some good books on Fetal Alcohol Syndrome (FAS)/Fetal Alcohol Effects (FAE). One is Fantastic Anton Succeeds. I don't remember the author, but if you put the name into Amazon, it should come up. My favorite Fetal Alcohol Syndrome (FAS) book is The Broken Cord by Michael Dorris. He adopted three kids and they all had Fetal Alcohol Syndrome (FAS)/Fetal Alcohol Effects (FAE), although the book only focuses on the oldest child. It sort of goes into a lot of detail on his son's behaviors. [/QUOTE]
