[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 367969, member: 1550"] Fetal Alcohol Syndrome (FAS) has been proven. There is no ambivalence about how it is given to a child and it can be 100% prevented. My guess is that most European prospective moms stop drinking when they become pregnant. I do know that kids born in Eastern Europe have a huge % of adopted kids coming here with fetal alcohol issues. Although some kids dodge the bullet, it is a very bad idea to drink while pregnant for any reason, even a glass of wine. I just didn't want to leave the last post there because Fetal Alcohol Syndrome (FAS)/Fetal Alcohol Effects (FAE) is not the same as autism, which still has scientists wondering where/how/why. Fetal Alcohol Syndrome (FAS) is due to a mother drinking while pregnant and for no other reason. It is permanant brain damage and sadly not much can be done about it other than to caretake your child even as an adult. It's the only preventable birth defect! [/QUOTE]
