This review is from: Children with Prenatal Alcohol And/Or Other Drug Exposure: Weighing the Risks of Adoption (Paperback)

This short book has a few insights in it, but overall I didn't find it very useful. Perhaps this is because it was published almost ten years ago and I was able to get much more information than what's in this book by searching the web. The book is mostly redundant and vague -- it doesn't seem to present enough real research to be helpful to parents or professionals. Its message can be summed up as follows: We don't really know anything about the effects of prenatal drug exposure, so parents have to prepared for both the good and the bad.
