help needed

[lauraralph]

hi all my 6yr old has been diagnosed with fasd and I'm wondering if there are any support groups in the Basingstoke area as my sons behaviour has become very challenging thanks in advance x

[FamilySupport]

yes, we have a Southampton Support group which helps families from across the Hampshire region. If you email me at [e-mail], then I can put you in contact with them. Also, have you got a copy of Julia Brown & Dr Mary Mather's book - "Parenting a child with an Invisible Disability?" fasdtrust.co.uk/news_item.p...

Lots of helpful tips in there.

Hi. If you feel like driving in a differnt direction, you would be equally welcome at the Surrey group! We are a new group and are next meeting on Sat 22nd August from 11.00am till 2.00pm for support and a summer picnic. We are meeting at The King's Centre, Coppard Gardens, Chessington, Surrey, KT9 2GZ. Do message back if you feel like coming and want any other info. All the best.

And if you fancy driving another direction, there is a group in Bath / NE Somerset so you are spoilt for choice. There is also a group in Oxford, north of you.

Hello lauraralph, I too have 6 year olds with FASD who are very challenging! What is a day in your life like, can you give us an idea so that we can see if we are having the same and if there is anything we can help each other with?
