JS>FAS and FAE (Fetal Alcoholic Effect) do have some symptoms which are 
similar

JS>diagnosis came back as ADD.  Of course, when we realized that there are
JS>treatments for ADD but not FAE we were thankful.
Jerry, some docs consider ADD a form of FAS.  Treatable, but the result
of alcohol use in the family background.
These kids respond better to dietary measures aimed at specific
neurotrasmitters rather than drugs.
