[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 206188, member: 1550"] Hi there. I know about Fetal Alcohol Syndrome (FAS). Not an expert, but I'm an adoptive mom and know a lot of people with kids who have Fetal Alcohol Syndrome (FAS) issues. Unfortunately, these kids, through NO FAULT of either YOU or their own, have organic brain damage--and can not learn from their mistakes. They need to be watched very carefully so they can be helped to make better decisions. If this were my child, I would want him in a very small class with an aide. He will likely need this type of supervision all of his life. I read a very interesting article on adults with Fetal Alcohol Syndrome (FAS) (wish I'd kept the link). The adults were relieved to know why they kept getting into the same trouble over and over again and they needed high supervision even then. I would get this little guy into a very small classroom with teachers who understand fetal alcohol spectrum. Although medications can help certain symptoms, they can not reverse the alcohol damage, so the best help (from what mothers have told me) is intervention at school and somebody to watch the kids closely. Hope this helped. I don't have this experience first hand so I'm sort of paraphrasing what other moms have said to me about their Fetal Alcohol Syndrome (FAS)/Fetal Alcohol Effects (FAE) children.
