[QUOTE="house of cards, post: 214674, member: 2005"] I have 4 kids that were exposed to drugs/alchohol. Major has been diagnosed Fetal Alcohol Effects (FAE) and ARND at 2 different times. He also has been diagnosed with mood disorder not otherwise specified, ADHD, anxiety. He overreacts to anger, fear, and frustration, he is OFTEN irritable and angry with no reason, he needs a slower, smaller classroom with less distractions, and he needs to feel loved. The smaller classroom has helped a ton with his feelings about school. I haven't seen a whole lot of progress on handling his emotions better. It is my hope that as he matures and as he builds a life avoiding the things that frustrate him, that he will be ok. I do not see Major as needing constant supervision as an adult. Lamictal gave him back his smile. My L just had neuropsychological testing, she has attentional problems, anxiety, low average IQ. She struggles in school especially with math and reading. The neuro reported her scores as consistant for drug /alcohol exposure. I see her having more difficulties in adult life. She may need some help or a very understanding husband. My S is a bright spot in alot of peoples days, he has a wonderful smile and gives it out freely. He will always be in sp ed but he's doing very well there(honor role). He would do great at a job interacting with people, he's only 8 and a bit early to worry about what he will do for a livilihood but he has told me he wants to sell cars. Sales would be a perfect placement for him. He is a twin to L and actuaully showed more withdrawl at birth then she did. My sister raised a child with severe Fetal Alcohol Syndrome (FAS), his story isn't as upbeat. He will not allow supervision (he definately needs it), he drinks and has been violent, he rarely contacts my sister. [/QUOTE]
