Back to Directory SYNOPSIS: This document is a breakdown of the personality and learning traits of FAS/FAE children. Knowing what to expect in terms of how they learn and process information, as well as what other agendas may be in their brains can make a tremendous difference in the lesson that are planned. Not only that, but because of some of the traits , such as retreating and isolating themselves, teachers will be prepared and formulate a plan of action to address the issue. At first glance, most of these seem negative-it isn't so much negative as it is how they process what you say and how you say it. Remember, just because you know what you said, they might not.

Extractions: Alcohol, the Fetus and Fetal Alcohol Syndrome An education misdirected? A college paper by Kirk Van-Beer Written from the a Child and Youth Care Counsellors point of view.) Abstract: Fetal Alcohol Syndrome (FAS), is something whose mere mention implies different things to different people. It is a 'syndrome' immersed in stereotypes by the North American society in which we live, the majority of which are sadly negative. In the paper that follows, though written from a North American perspective, I will refrain from examining the specifics of these stereotypes, for to acknowledge them would only give them attention that I do not believe that they deserve in the context of this article. This paper is about FAS and the way we, as a North American society, educate people about its known, and possible, causes. The paper is split into six sections. It begins by looking at a history of the discovery of FAS and Fetal Alcohol Effects, (FAE) and goes on to define each to avoid confusion within the paper. Having dealt with descriptions of FAS/FAE, it briefly examines four articles that offer a contrasting view to that of the mother being solely responsible for a child with it, by showing that alcohol is a teratogen on the sperm, and suggesting that this may effect the fetus. The paper then offers a suggestion as to why FAS/FAE is seen to be such a social and societal leper by comparing its public awareness to the initial awareness of Acquired Immuno Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS) in the 1970's and 80's, and suggesting that a different approach is needed to the education of the subject. The conclusion is very deliberate.
