Fetal Alcohol Syndrome

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.
