[QUOTE="meowbunny, post: 215623, member: 3626"] Sadly, there really isn't a lot of treatment for Fetal Alcohol Syndrome (FAS)/Fetal Alcohol Effects (FAE). It is a serious neurological illness. If Fetal Alcohol Syndrome (FAS), there are typical facial features, much like Down's Syndrome but not quite as obvious. There is also usually mild retardation. Fetal Alcohol Effects (FAE) is not so obvious and is a guess by docs at this time. You can medicate some of the behavior but not the cause. Therapy has little effect. So, I'm hoping that it is not Fetal Alcohol Syndrome (FAS) or Fetal Alcohol Effects (FAE) for his and your sake. I hope you find some answers as to what he actually has. At least then you know what can and cannot be treated. [/QUOTE]
