This is more about TBI and violent behavior than FASD. Not a great book if you are looking for advice, solutions, or strategies of parenting fasd.

This was a quick read,but also very heartbreaking. It is a story of an adoptive parent who struggles with her own safety and that of her other children after adopting a child with FAS.

Heartrending memoir-ish tale of adoption - she’s adopted lots of kids (6? 7?), but focuses on the story of her son with Fetal Alcohol Syndrome and his behavior. I loved the beginning of the book and my heart breaks for what the mother went through, but I found some bits troubling. She spends no time talking about race or implicit bias or helping her (black) son navigate his culture. Some chapters felt like they were rushed or glossed over.
