5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect book for the school, September 21, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Reaching Out to Children with FAS/FAE: A Handbook for Teachers, Counselors, and Parents Who Live and Work with Children Affected by Fetal Alcohol Syndrome (Paperback)
This is a fantastic book for school professionals to read. It's easy reading and puts it in a format to help the teacher and others at the school know what your child needs and how to attain it.

Reaching Out to Children with FAS/FAE: A Handbook for Teachers, Counselors, and Parents Who Live and Work with Children Affected by Fetal Alcohol Syndrome


FAS are a combination of physical and mental birth defects. Recent government surveys indicate that about 1 in 12 pregnant women drink during pregnancy.
Studies suggest that drinking during pregnancy may contribute to stillbirth. A study was conducted 2008 that determined that women who had five or more drinks a week were 70 percent more likely to have a stillborn baby than non-drinking women. Studies by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) suggest that between 1,000 and 6,000 babies in the United States are born yearly with FAS. Babies with FAS are abnormally small at birth and usually do not catch up on growth as they get older. Many have poor coordination, a short attention span and emotional and behavioral problems. The effects of FAS last a lifetime. Most of the body organs and systems of the baby-to-be are formed within the first ten weeks or so of pregnancy. After about the tenth week, the fetus should grow rapidly in weight and size. At this stage, certain drugs may damage organs that are still developing, such as the eyes, as well as the nervous system. Intrauterine growth retardation (IUGR) is likely to result in a low-birth weight baby--a baby born too early, too small, or both. Low-birth weight babies require special care and run a much higher risk of severe health problems or even death.
