I had lots of kids in my class with FAS. A regular classroom is very hard for these kids, because "sitting still" or "sitting quietly" is difficult. Come to think of it, "sitting quietly" is hard for any kid.
I found that kids with FAS or ADHD need lots of physical activity. TV and video games should not be allowed in the home.
Although my son with FASD is now 22 we went through the same thing when he was in school. I got so sick and tired of the IEP meetings and having to tell each teacher, each year about the FAS. It made me angry and frustrated me. At one point I pulled him out and home-schooled him. Now he has been out of school since '08 and is taking CNA classes. He has worked very part time jobs until now, college was not an option for him because it is just to much for him.
