Fetal
Alcohol Syndrome/ Fetal Alcohol Effects
I have long been interested in children prenatally exposed to alcohol and
other substances because they represent symbolically all the different
aspects of intervention needed for children. Children with prenatal
exposure need assistance biochemically, environmentally, in their family
and at school, and with many aspects of managing their behavior and their
emotions.
This page represents my hope that parents, foster-parents, adoptive
parents, and mental health professionals can have as much information about
FAS/FAE as possible. Only through sharing information can support and ideas
for coping with this life long issue be found.
In order to facilitate this exchange of information regarding FAS/FAE
the following sites will be helpful.
http://www.adopting.org/rwfas.htmlThe
home page or Roots and Wings, an organization dedicated to adoptive
families, has a special section on FAS.
