Extractions: "This is a school, I'm an educator, I'm supposed to educate. There's no education going on here. We've got our hands full just keeping order. Society hands over its children. All its children. We get kids with emotional problems, family problems, medical problems, drug problems. We're supposed to heal them and teach them. We try, but these kids don't need teachers. They need doctors, social workers, and psychologists. The result is nobody's getting an education here. Nobody." Beneficence is doing good for others. There are several different kinds of beneficence. Individual beneficence is doing good deeds for individualssomeone you know or a stranger. Kinship beneficence is doing good deeds for relatives members of the immediate family, the extended family, or social organizations like tribes, clans, or races. Social beneficence is doing good deeds for society as a whole.
AADD - Fetal Alcohol Syndrome fetal alcohol syndrome. What is FAS / FAE / ARBD ? The fetal alcohol syndromeStudy Group of the National Council on alcoholism outlines minimal criteria http://www.aadd.org/www/html/prevfas.html
Extractions: The Fetal Alcohol Syndrome Study Group of the National Council on Alcoholism outlines minimal criteria for the diagnosis of Fetal Alcohol Syndrome (FAS) as being "evidence of abnormalities in three specific areas: growth, central nervous system functions, and facial characteristics." Fetal Alcohol Effects (FAE) is the term commonly used to describe children with fewer or less severe birth defects in the same areas. In both FAS and FAE, the birth defects are caused when a woman drinks alcohol during pregnancy. FAS and FAE are 100% preventable. Alcohol Related Birth Defects (ARBD) is a term that is used to describe birth defects caused by prenatal exposure to alcohol that had previously been called FAS/FAE.

Participation in a FAS Prevention Study funded for five years by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention convinced us that there is a need for health professionals to obtain more education and training on this subject. This course was designed to present the common manifestations of FAS/FAE. It also focuses on the assessment and intervention necessary to prevent or ameliorate long-term complications of in utero alcohol exposure. It emphasizes the child and family first and then the diagnosis. It describes the long-term effects and the ethical dilemmas associated with the diagnosis. Your efforts to learn these techniques can have a significant impact on the neurobehavioral development of the child and have a positive impact on the family's ability to help the child reach his or her fullest potential.

Extractions: FAS is the leading known cause of mental retardation in the United States. All races and ethnic groups are at risk. The physical and mental effects of the condition are irreversible. It is believed that the learning disabilities of many children result from maternal alcohol consumption. Infants born with FAS may be misdiagnosed. Criteria have been developed to help professionals correctly identify these children, including: in area between nose and upper lip Growth deficits Central nervous system problems Cardiac abnormalities Skeletal abnormalities A large number of children may possess some, but not all, of the above conditions. These children are said to have fetal alcohol effects. Although this condition may not be as severe as FAS, it is still problematic. The financial and emotional cost of FAS is enormous. FAS children have a myriad of lifelong health issues. As infants, they may be very easily agitated and difficult to comfort. Many also manifest a poor sucking response that contributes to poor weight gain. Affected infants also have difficulty sleeping. As these children grow, their disability may become more noticeable as they begin to interact with other children. Indeed, some are not diagnosed until school performance problems indicate the need for medical intervention. Problematic behaviors may include:
