@szeszi21 No, she's not.

You're all jack*sses for ridiculing the mother. First of all, he IS adopted if you do a quick Google search. He was born in Russia and was adopted at 14 months, diagnosed with FAS at age 4. Look up "story of iyal" to read more about this moving story.
I thank the mother for supporting this child and spreading awareness about this terrible disorder. Good luck.

How hard is it to stay sober for your baby?

No offence but she's trying to make out that it wasn't her fault, and it just "happened", but she drank. Not him. She caused him to be like that.

I do not think she is the biological mother. She is his mother and she did not want to make that distinction; coming to think of it we are the mothers of all children and we all feel their pain.

This mother is insane. She's the cause of his FAS and she's acting like he was diagnosed with it by some 'accident' No, it's YOUR fault. You drank alcohol while you were pregnant, and you gave you're own son his disability. I'm not trying to sound harsh, but if she cared, she wouldn't have done it when she knew the consequences.
