Kurzbeschreibung
Part heartfelt memoir, part practical guide, Damaged Angels recounts Bonnie Buxton's struggles to raise an adopted daughter whom she didn't realize was afflicted with fetal alcohol disorder. Her book also offers guidance to parents who have children with FASD. By the time Bonnie's daughter Colette hit first grade, her parents were coping with her frequent stealing and lying, and the necessity of special education. At fourteen, she discovered drugs and sex; by eighteen, she was a crack addict living on the streets. After many frustrating years consulting numerous therapists, a TV news story gave Bonnie the answer she was looking for and sent her on a quest for a diagnosis and help for Colette. Damaged Angels can aid and comfort all those affected by FASD the most common cause of intellectual impairments in most industrialized nations and reduce the number of babies born with this disorder in the future. The most important book on fetal alcohol disorder since Michael Dorris's The Broken Cord, Damaged Angels is a book for every parent, practitioner, and teacher working with a child with FASD.

Finally, some answers.

Format:Taschenbuch|Von Amazon bestätigter Kauf
This is an excellent resource for parents of FAE/FAS children, adopted or by birth. If you have a child who doesn't understand cause and effect, looks normal, but acts years younger than his or her age, this is the book for you.

The perfect mix of fact and real-life example
18. Februar 2006
Format:Taschenbuch
Bonnie Buxton does an amazing job in this book of thoroughly explaining the damage that prenatal alcohol exposure does to an unborn child's brain and how that plays out in real-life examples, without painting a picture that is dark and hopeless. We get to see these real families working hard to make good lives for their children, feel their struggles, grieve in their failures and celebrate in their successes. This is a beautiful book full of life and hope.
