“The most important thing that I want you to understand about our journey with FASD is that even though my son David has an IQ of 111 and attends public school in a regular classroom setting even though he looks like all of the other children and scores high on the state's standard of learning tests, the disabling effects of FASD are something we can never forget. He has no ability to regulate his behavior or activity level.”
Ida Farr
