Parenting Techniques

Parenting children with FASD is mentally, emotionally, and physically draining. We have set up some information for parenting children with this disorder.

This information is being offered to parents of children with FASD, whether they are birth parents, foster parents, kinship, or adopted. It may also be useful to professionals— teachers, administrators—who are involved in FASD. It should also be helpful for persons with FASD and for caregivers as well, as it will help them to understand their clients.

In order to help you learn more about what is here, we recommend that you read these pages, study them, and then talk about them with all your child's caregivers. Not every child will have every behavior or problem listed. They have organic brain damage and it affects each child differently.
