[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 678529, member: 1550"] Copa,bit is common for adopted kids in all countries to have fetal alcohol and drugs in utero and we cant expect kids with poisined brains to have the potential of those who dont. Did you pursue further testing when doctor said he has fetal alcohol features? If he has any alcohol or drug affectsvit is unrealistic to expect him to act like a man with normal brain. Hard to accept, I know, but realistic. It is very likely mom drank and even took hard drugs during pregnsncy and it does affect the baby. Yes, they can be smart in certain ways but drugs and alcohol do affect the developing brain. In a conventionsl school setting, it may have been caught. Copa, you and I can not adopt drug/alcohol exposed babies and expect them just tobe typically normal kids. They have diffetent degrees of damage before we even know them. Often it affects reasoning skills or understandinr right fro wrong and/makes them emotionally unstable/labile. In our case we did everything we could to give sonic all interventions. We ecpected issues, worked on them with professionals and he is doing great considering his early prognosis. He is 95 percent independent but he still needs help sometimes. Food for thought ;) [/QUOTE]
