[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 217271, member: 1550"] The best treatment for Fetal Alcohol Syndrome (FAS)/Fetal Alcohol Effects (FAE) kids is supervision. They have organic brain damage and, unlike other disordered kids, really can not learn from their errors or understand right from wrong. Consequences don't help as they have disordered cause-and-effect thinking and tend to forget things from day to day anyway. I recently read a good article on adults with Fetal Alcohol Syndrome (FAS)/Fetal Alcohol Effects (FAE). They were relieved to learn why they can't seem to stay out of trouble. They were in highly supervised homes so caretakers could help them stay out of trouble. Without constant monitoring, they tend to abuse substances themselves, have babies, be unable to care for the babies and/or end up in jail. They really are very needy, and it is in no way within their control or their own faults. It is not useful to get stressed out that they continue to make poor choices--they can't help it. in my opinion the best solution is to look for safe, kind longterm care for them and understand that they are not "bad" kids or even "troubled" kids. They are brain damaged kids due to the choices of their birthmothers. [/QUOTE]
