__Treatments of Fetal Alcohol Syndrome__

Since Fetal Alcohol syndrome can be extremely difficult to diagnose in some cases, it is also almost impossible to treat. The way a child is born with fetal alcohol syndrome is of a mother who drinks alcohol while carrying her unborn child. Early diagnosis of fetal alcohol syndrome (FAS) and fetal alcohol effect (FAE) allow newborns to be identified and enrolled into early intervention and treatment programs. New programs are showing dramatic improvements in children identified earlier in life. That doesn’t mean that there are not any alternatives, it just simply means that we have to use different resources. The resources that we can use are parenting groups, hospitals have such groups specially held for children and parents of Fetal alcohol syndrome in Toronto, Ont at Sick Kids Hospital. Also as a parent of a child with FAS there are support groups run by parents with children who have FAS to converse and listen to each other’s stories, problems, and successes.
