This program profiles an eight-year-old Apache Indian boy born with FAS, showing how alcohol ingested by the mother crosses the placenta and enters the bloodstream of the fetus, remaining long after it has left the mother's bloodstream. Describes the common defects of children with FAS - small eyes, flattened face, short nose, long, smooth upper lip, small head circumference - and the learning disabilities, mental handicaps, and behavioral problems that are common. The program also explores babies born to cocaine-addicted mothers, illustrating how cocaine affects the fetus, and explaining that crack babies are at risk for low birth weight, impaired brain growth, and malformed kidneys and genitals.
