I've been posting with another username but couldn't remember my login details after the Great Data Breach from last week so here's another username.
Anyway, I'm in the middle of Stage 2 and my SW and I have gone through the list of what I think I could and could not deal with - disabilities, specific traumas, etc. When it came to FAS I said no, but my SW suggested that the majority of children who are taken into care are affected by this and that it would be difficult for me to adopt a child who wasn't on the spectrum with this.
I'd like to know other adopters thoughts on this (potential adopters and adoptive parents) and, if you have experience of adopting a child with FAS I'd be interested in how it's been for you, if you're open to sharing.
