But the mother (OP) never SAID that the child was diagnosed with Fetal Alcohol Syndrome (FAS) or Fetal Alcohol Effects (FAE) is why I thought your comments were UN-called for. Why start out putting blame on a parent who has come here for help? It is certainly not a way to welcome someone to the group. It is: "WHAT DID YOU DO to screw up your child so badly?" (In this case as with most that are here because they DO care about their kids)
Well Insane Canadian why don't you please explain to all of the rest of us what you did to make your child come out so screwed up?? Or maybe you adopted so you have an out??? It is just plain rude to ask people these type of questions. If you can't be supportive than just skip posting.
I am calling you out on it because if this were a real world support group I would do the same thing. I have seen you post other UN-helpful responses but this one really ticked me off.
Ask yourself, have you been here too long? As my mother taught me, if you can't say anything nice.............
