A Family Living With Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorders / Educational Video

[keybladealchemist88]

excuse me but i was wondering would anyone call it bad if someone kept stealing things from someone who has a bit of a memory problem due to FAS any comments would be very helpful

[elizabethgarman1969]

May I borrow this video for a report I have on FASD? I won't use it until I have your permission! God bless!

@elizabethgarman1969 - yes, I apologize for the delayed response -- but you can use this video. thanks

I think a mother who gives birth to a child with FAS should have her tubes tied. I don't care that it's her own body. Your rights end when they affect other's rights, and the mother who drinks ruins her child's right to a better life. If anyone disagrees with me, I encourage you to engage in CONSTRUCTIVE, RESPECTFUL debate with me to find better solutions. Comment a reply or messaging me is cool.

I have an adopted sister with fas. This video describes her very well. I'm just thankful to know we aren't the only family dealing with these types of behaviors every day.

why drink when you are pregant? Why?

He acts like a child on the autism spectrum more than fetal alcohol syndrome..commonly they can have physical deformaties and mental disabiites that can be mistaken for mental retardation..i pray he recieves great therapy and intervention either way so he cAn enjoy life like everyone else

Iyal is my friend from school. Don't say bad stuff about him.

He has a disability because bitch couldn't keep away from the liquor when she was pregnant. The mother heavily damaged the quality of life her child would experience before he had was born. This woman makes me sick, she makes it seem like she's a great parent dealing with a disability. She did that to him and should be ashamed of what she did.

@TragicArchAngel The parents are obviously Jewish and besides the fact that Jews don't drink, the kid looks Native, plus there are no early baby pictures. He's probably adopted. I was thinking the same thing, what mother would put herself in a PSA like that after causing such harm to her kid?

[TragicArchAngel]

@thetruthergirls I was drunk and bitter that night, probably didn't even notice they were of different ethnicities. :D

[TheLuckymomof3boys]

@TragicArchAngel before you say such horrible things, why don't you find out the facts. It only makes you look ignorant! This mom adopted this boy when he was a baby. The fact that he had ANY issues was not disclosed to them. She seems to be an amazing mother, trying to ease the pain her son has to endure everyday, at no fault of his own! I understand your harshness, but before you call her names you should have done a litte research!

[SkepticalBliss]

Aww - how sad. Hopefully science will find a solution as they always have in the past. Thanks for putting this out there...

@SkepticalBliss - you are welcome!

[HearingEveryRhyme]

@SkepticalBliss Well if a parent doesn't drink, then it doesn't happen. It is the fault of whomever the biological mother is and is is despicable that anyone would do this to their child. The disregard for the child is appalling in my opinion.

The more research we can do with stem cells will lead to many more developments and treatments for neurological disabilities, as chemicals can only do so much, but they cannot repair damage.

[fanfave101]

@SkepticalBliss there is a solution. Dont drink while pregnate , or breast feeding or if your planning on becomming pregnate. Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorders is 100% preventable.

[SkepticalBliss]

@fanfave101 You got that right! Sometimes the best solutions are the obvious ones.
