The Adoption & Foster Care Journey
Religion & Spirituality:Christianity
“Now see to it that you drink no wine or other fermented drink and that you do not eat anything unclean. You will become pregnant and have a son whose head is never to be touched by a razor because the boy is to be a Nazirite, dedicated to God from the womb…” Judges 13:4-5
This week on episode 311 of our Orphans No More podcast, host Sandra Flach talks about her experiences as a mom of children with Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder.
She says, “Our prenatally exposed kids - no matter their age - can learn. They might learn differently. But they can learn. While we tend to try everything in an attempt to find something that works (myself included) - diet, exercise, supplements, therapies, medication, etc….there is no magic cure for an FASD. And our kids are not going to turn 18 or 21 and suddenly outgrow it.”
Listen in as Sandra shares about focusing on strengths rather than trying to “fix” a child’s disability. Please be sure to subscribe to the podcast, leave a review, and share it on your social media.
