Fetal alcohol spectrum disorders (FASDs) are a group of conditions that can occur in a person whose mother drank alcohol during pregnancy.Symptoms can include an abnormal appearance, short height, low body weight, small head size, poor coordination, low intelligence, behavior problems, learning difficulties and problems with hearing or sight. Those affected are more likely to have trouble in school, legal problems, participate in high-risk activities and have problems with alcohol or other drugs.[8] The most severe form of the condition is known as fetal alcohol syndrome (FAS).Other types include partial fetal alcohol syndrome (pFAS), alcohol-related neurodevelopmental disorder (ARND) and alcohol-related birth defects (ARBD). Some accept only FAS as a diagnosis, seeing the evidence as inconclusive with respect to other types.[10]Fetal alcohol spectrum disorders are caused by a mother drinking alcohol during pregnancy.Surveys from the United States found that about 10% of pregnant women drank alcohol in the past month, and 20% to 30% drank at some point during the pregnancy.About 3.6% of pregnant American women are alcoholics. The risk of FASD depends on the amount consumed and the frequency of consumption as well as at what point in pregnancy the alcohol was consumed. Other risk factors include older age of the mother, smoking, and poor diet.There is no known safe amount or time to drink alcohol during pregnancy. While drinking small amounts does not cause abnormalities in the face, it may cause behavioral issues.[12] Alcohol crosses the blood-brain barrier and both directly and indirectly affects a developing fetus. Diagnosis is based on the signs and symptoms in the person.
Thank you, mum 👍
thank you dad
Thank you adoptive parents
Thank you Dad.
For what? Having FAS usually sucks
@@Mitzi-chan224 😃
Here after seeing multiple people say Chrisean Rock’s baby looks like he may have FAS. When this video described what a child may look like (Who People from Whoville in my opinion) I said to myself, “But that’s how her and all of her siblings look.. Like cute little Who People”. 🤔 But THEN it hit me that her mother was / is an addict and now I wonder if alcohol also played a role in her mother’s addiction…
Me too and I had the same thought and realization about the looks of her n siblings due to the mom! I'm so sad for jr. And it's also sad that we care and want to know more than the selfish irresponsible mom!
Stg I came right after I watch that video
I was misdiagnosed my entire life with autism, adhd/add, Asperger's, etc and just recently I discovered from my birth hospital paper work that I may just have Fetal Alcohol Syndrome or a derivative, as it was listed as a/the cause of my premature birth. To finally have the symptoms I have suffered with for over 30 years FINALLY identified, I can NOW seek proper assistance.
Sorry about your condition. I hope you get better
@@MedicalCentric it was moreso challenging when everybody was trying to make me "normal", the fact is that you have to just accept that's the way it is, that's the hand you're dealt and you just have to play your cards accordingly the best you can. Also, if you practice and stay the course eventually you'll succeed. The hardest part was not knowing what the hell I had to the point of breakdown/self hatred and then eventually, true actual self-discovery. Basically, I had to find the truth within myself first before I could even think about finding the truth from other people, mainly the experts who misdiagnosed me in the first place, when the answer was clear, or at least it was on paper, which everyone misread or disregarded, even family. Yet they never said life wouldn't be hard!
ADHD is very comorbid with this, also Autism is common.
I know this comment is six months old, but I'm going through the same thing and I was wondering if the treatment you received had helped. On top of misdiagnosed ADHD/Asperger's-like symptoms, I have a terrible time with math, to the point where college seems impossible. I would like to know how to help myself at this point, but Google searches aren't giving me much information on whether pursuing this would be helpful or worth it.
my mother drank while she was with me
Where I grew up a lot of kids looked like the description of FAS.
was it europe 😂
@@TrueTruthHonest England.
Like monkeys. I see monkey people too.
@@catherinebirch2399USA has a 5% rate, England has 15%.
So, makes sense - given you’re most of Europe’s hardest drinkers.
Geez, where are you from?
I'm 60 years old and just found out that I have Fetal Alcohol Syndrome. Nobody told me til in the doctor's report recently.
thank you MOM for all the trauma
Happy mothers day!! Mom your present is this video
I dont have facial features but im bad in memory when im in school and its hard for me to making friends
It must suck having no facial features...
Very funny... or not
You can have a an array of things. If those are the only two symptoms you fall you. Under, it’s probably not that. They thought I was on the spectrum with it when I was growing up but I literally fell under only 2 symptoms and later on in my 20’s, I was diagnosed with something totally different.
Sounds like autism to me. I have autism and I struggle with the same thing
I've seen terrible facial/head deformities.
Alcoholism is hereditary as well as a bad social culture.
I've always wondered if throughout history many people had fas because alcohol was consumed throughout pregnancy and was cleaner than water and so drunk as if it were water. I know it would probably have been watered down or weaker wine, but alcohol is alcohol.
And it should not be drank during pregnancy, as someone whom has had the full effects of fetal alcohol syndrome on them it sucks to live sometimes and see yourself showing the side effects of it
@@neotokyo2418 Considering throught much of the world weak alcohol such as mead was drunk, and was considered safer than water, which means that most peoples ancesotrs likely had minor fasd aspects to them.
There are thousands of people that have fasd . Especially in the old days . But they weren't looked after with support workers and doctors like they are now . They were put in institutions and work houses . They were classed as mental . There's was no knowledge of fasd. They were very harsh those days of people with mental health and physical health conditions .
Most people at the time drank watered down beer that ranged from 0.5-2% alcohol. It wasn't until people figured out distillation and made alcohol 14-45%.
This is why you shouldn't drink and do other drugs while you're pregnant.
Exactly. If someone can't control themselves to not use drugs and alcohol then they should get an abortion.
No shit sherlock
well no shit
@@rebeccaspratling2865 wow you’re such a good person for thinking that! Way more morally upright than all of those people who actually see fetuses in the womb as people. I could never kill a baby because it might have slight to severe physical and mental problems. You know what, I think since people like you are all so morally upright and loving, it would be a great idea to just go ahead and kill all of the disabled and poverty stricken people because their life is gonna suck so much worse than yours even though you probably have a lot of great things going for you despite all of your struggles.
Thanks for being so kind and considerate to people like me and my family who were born with FAS by promoting to others that you’re saving us by taking our lives from us before we even get to experience it 🥲💔 how cruel and evil.
The kid at 2:45 looks exactly like Alfalfa from the old Our Gang. Carl Dean Switzer died at age 31, after a series of poor life decisions. Now we know more about it.
Great video

His mom was probably an alcoholic that whored her son to Hollywood
Thanks mother.
@Kenvy bruh
@Bundel lmao
it made you LGBT because the brain damage?
That’s boutta be chrisean Rock kid
😢
Unfortunately, there’s already defects. He’s almost 8 months and not making any improvement. He can’t control his muscles, not interacting, not grabbing anything. He literally stares and sleep. He’s always propped up as well.
I see to as well & its sad AF smdh he going to be a slow kid growning up not trying to be disrespectful @BrookeMichaela1
Thanks 👏🏽🌸🌟
This is sad bruh
Thanks mom.
Thanks
You are welcome
Thanks mom!
The picture looks like the actor who played Alfalfa. This could explain a lot.
Pic of mom with a beer t shirt smoking with three empty beers in front of her..taken 1 month before I was born. Oh well.
What’d it do to you?
I have a messed up story when I was younger my mother lost my brother While she was pregnant rest in peace anyways anyways now that I'm older I don't want to believe that she was taking stuff and she purposely Lee took him away so he wouldn't be born like that it's a messed up world only she knows what happened
It’s about Chrisean Rock’s son that have alcohol syndrome. I heard a lot of people are saying her son is blind that can’t see. Her son need some hospital to stay alive 🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️
There is currently no verified information confirming the health status of Chrisean Rock's son; we recommend referring to reliable sources for accurate updates on her family's situation.
Now I won’t be able to look at anyone with thin upper lips
Sir can you shere other medical conditions - "otitis media " And "mastoiditis", imdeatly recently I need this two vedio
Other birth defects like from inbreeding
I can’t even imagine how any mom to be unless she didn’t know could even do this ! I wouldn’t even have a cigarette ! I was so afraid
Assuming your kids will turn out as perfect as you then! 😇
@@emmathornton9677 You dont have to be "perfect" to not poison your baby.
Well applause for you! Yippee skippee the words "you're pregnant" is NOT the magical cure for an addicted woman, therefore, it is up to her to get help yes but just because you can 'not even have a cigarrette" doesn't mean that a heroin addict can simply stop using, in fact Dr's do not recommend a woman stop using if she finds out she is pregnant as she will go through withdrawl as will the baby which could lead to a miscarriage instead they prefer using subtext or methadone throughout the rest of the pregnancy, but I'm so very glad you are able to not even have a cigarette did you also put down coffee, tea, and soda? Did you excesise 3times a week and get 8 hiurs of sleep a night? Did you breastfeed? Be Use i dont understand why any woman would want to gi e their child somilac and thats a woman choosing to give her child synthetic breast milk , you are not better than the woman that is addicted because you can simply stop smoking obviously you were not severely addicted Bottom line, if you don't see how a woman can do that then go to a rehab for pregnant mothers and meet some of the women then make you holier than thou comments
@@oliviagunn8809 exactly. The bar is so low for a lot of people
My girlfriend thinks its normal to drink while pregnant. I was blown away by this considering she's a very smart and educated woman. I told her that if we have kids and I catch her drinking I will leave her immediately. I am almost sure my mother drank and smoked when I was younger. I don't have any physical defects but I have had some of the issues they've mentioned. Watching her friends drink wine while pregnant is so infuriating, but I don't say anything.
Someone said I look like I have it but I only have a flat nose bridge- idek anymore man I’m overthinking my face more than ever
That's cruel or them to say!
I'm sure I've seen historical photos with people with those kinda faces
What systems are affected in the baby if the mother consumes alcohol during the pregnancy? I know the baby's nervous system is affected, what other systems are affected?
Brain
@@zoradz5825 you have a small brain
@@jayadams6080 I actually do good job
About everything. It just comes out deformed. And has no chance of normal life. Better to put the mom and child down.
@@sleutelpunt3940 wrong not everyone comes out not a normal Looking some come out more successful than others but mothers should not do this regardless
What about before pregnancy? Like I drink a lot before being pregnant and I want to get pregnant. Well my years of drinking affect my child?
Lol Dj Tanner😅
No. But you need to resolve any drinking problems before becoming a parent. Having an alcoholic parent SUCKS.
@@YSLRD yeah! Totally! Now that I’m trying to conceive I am completely 100% sober with alcohol. And everything I guess, but not that I ever did anything else lol. But I drink a lot when I was younger. I don’t know, I just feel like maybe my poor habits when I was younger might affect my future child. I wish I wasn’t so stupid when I was younger
Stuff like that can affect the quality of your eggs or a man’s sperm. But age, luck and genetics also play a part so hopefully it hasn’t left a lasting legacy for you
Urrrr I have half of these but I have fetile drug syndrome
Chrisean rock and blue face got be here
I was born with Fetal Alcohol Syndrome.
Hello
God bless you, richly, beautiful!
Are you different
Your pfp shows
do you know how much your mother drank?
Looks like greta thunberg to me.
lol
I wonder if this takes place if the father drinks.
I suppose if the father is carrying the baby.😂😂
I would image so if two parents engage in substance abuse for extended amounts of time. If not alcohol then some kind of drug
It can happen if the father was drinking alcohol also
No
No, that's called whiskey dick!
😂😂😂 No silly.
This is why I didn’t drink at when I as Pregnant to talk who said it’s ok to drink yall f up
.... Idk if its me being introvert or having fetal alcohol syndrome..
I have this disorder... ; ; (not a severe forme)
do you know how much your mom drank
Thanks mom. I’m bipolar and my brother is autistic. (I hate myself and want to die) Kurt cobain.
Fun fact Jeffy from SNL has the syndrome which is why I’m here
Thank you for sharing. How can I assist you further today?
FASD makes kids look like lorax movie characters. My condolences btw
Stay away from alcohol if you care about your health
I advise you to stay away from alcohol to maintain optimal health ❤️
Is that nearly same as adhd?
more research must be done but yeah i think there could be a connection
I have some phystric disabilities being part of the fatel achole spectrum disorder and my mom never drank while pregnet with me but my grandma did drink a lot of achole and think that’s why I have this disorder or it could be my dad might have it I was diganoised with adhd and prescribed adderal and caused more phystric issues and it made me attempts suicide but I actually do have the facial festers of someone with fatel achole spectrum disorder my doctors and teachers consider me hi functioning but I still have some a lot of bumps in the road one time I was switching anti depressionts and had to leave because I had a really bad panic attack and bad signs of Zoloft withdraw switching to Prozac I was put in a mental hosptail because of my adhd misdiagnosis and since moving to Oregon from Texas I found a doctor who finally was able to help me with my disorder and found the right combination kids and adults are at a higher risk of suicide since moving to Oregon I have replased twice from depression and almost went to the emergancy because of my suicidal thoughts
@@abbeyawesome1012 I don’t mean to be rude or anything but have you considered that your mother might just try to protect you from dirty secret and not tell you the truth?
no.
many people with FAS get diagnosed with ADHD. My mom drank when she was pregnant with me but I haven't been diagnosed with FAS, but I have with ADHD and relate to these symptoms. However, this is anecdotal.
And Will have ADHD

God loves you and he wants to save everyone, but in order for him to do that, you need to repent and be baptized. Also share his gospel with everyone you come in to contact with and keep his commandments 🙏🏾😘
❤️
god is real. religion is manmade.
Actually baptism isn't a requirement to get into heaven. It just helps cleanse the body. The soul is what's most important.
@@eskaban_edits Yep He very much is. Religion became a thing when people wanted to instead worship demons posing as gods or make up whatever story suits their agenda. It's gotten to the point where it can be hard to tell which religion is serving the real God and has the corresponding morals and beliefs that are both unbiased and work in society.
So far orthodox christianity, though the bible has mistranslations and church leaders took out much of the original book in the past, is still probably the most consistent and moral you can get in my opinion. Despite attempting to make the translated Torah fit their agenda, people can still read for themselves and see much of the hypocrisy in nearly every church.
Islam is pretty similar but 1 of the key beliefs is that Jesus was only a prophet and nobody actually special and that He didn't resurrect Himself. This is false given historical records.
Edit: Technically you can say Christ was a prophet though because He prophesied and preached to people about the future. That's the 1 thing Islam got right about Jesus.
Shut up about your cult
Those women should go to jail!... sadly we are in a "patriarchy": so poor whomen and bla bla
Not jail. They should be put down since they’ve taken any chance of normal life.
No, alcohol should simply not be sold, that's it.
@@YesNo-dm4dx yes, and crime should be illegal.
@Nuttin&Puttin your racism is showing...
I worked many years with kids, an or parents. And sometimes the mom doesn't know she is pregnant right away. Or is in a abusive relationship, an thats her way of coping till she gets help. Or was raped, an she is dealing with depression, or one of many other situations. Any way alls I'm saying is sometimes someone needs help, not judged.
Take care❤

If these Facial Abnormalities are considered, how do you explain Ken Jennings on Jeopardy?🦧
Sadly enough ... Roman empire's success as developping quality food and alcool probly brought its share of fetal alcoholism syndrom then ... with the primitive understanding of antique Rome, the idea is somehow troubling ... 🫤
Fetal Alcohol Syndrome (FAS) is a modern medical term that wasn't recognized in the ancient Roman era, and it's crucial to acknowledge that our understanding of the syndrome has evolved over time. While the Romans did have access to alcoholic beverages, the concept of FAS and its associated risks due to maternal alcohol consumption during pregnancy only became clear in recent years. Today, the focus is on educating individuals about the dangers of alcohol during pregnancy to protect the health and development of both the mother and the child, emphasizing modern knowledge and awareness.
we need to go back in time and stop the romans from developing alcohol
Damn shit gonna go crazy w the abort sean ban 🫣
