Der 09.09. und der ganze neunte Monat September steht für FASD Awareness weltweit. Maximilian konnte vor knapp elf Jahren mit Hilfe des @bbpflegekinder eine Familie finden. Viele Kinder mit der Diagnose #fetalealkoholspektrumstörung leben in Pflegefamilien. Das Fetale Alkoholsyndrom ist die häufigste Behinderung der Welt und zugleich die vermeidbarste von allen. Es geht nicht darum, Alkohol zu verteufeln oder gar zu verbieten. Es geht nicht darum, die Verantwortung ausschließlich bei den Frauen zu suchen. Es geht nicht um Schuld oder gar Anklage. Es geht um eine gesamtgesellschaftliche Haltung zu Alkohol und das Bewusstsein, dass es sich dabei um ein wasserlösliches Nervengift handelt. Alkohol ist die einzige Droge, für die man sich rechtfertigen muss, wenn man sie NICHT nimmt! Kinder mit #fasd Diagnose tragen ein schweres Stigma. Ihr vulnerables Gehirn und ihre bunten Emotionen brauchen den Rollstuhl der Seele. Sie brauchen ein Aussengewissen, welches sie vor Missbrauch schützt. Sie brauchen Akzeptanz und Verständnis. Doch plötzlich heben alle den Finger, dass die Mama schwanger trank, obwohl sie noch beim Sektfrühstück mit Freundinnen überredet wurde. „Was? Echt jetzt? Nur O-Saft? Komm schon….“ Ihr müsst wissen, dass bereits geringe Mengen Alkohol einen direkten Einfluss auf das ungeborene Kind haben. Durch die Wasserlöslichkeit, bekommt das Kind direkten Konsum über die Plazenta. Was für Mama nur ganz wenig ist, kann für das Kind lebenslänglich sein. Maximilian ist durch seine Zuversicht und durch seine Offenheit zum Botschafter in unserer Gesellschaft geworden. Er weiß um seine Behinderung und die Ursache. Im bundesweiten Kinder- und Jugendrat der Pflegekinder mit Behinderung hat er eine starke Stimme. Er ist mutig! Er ist liebevoll! Er ist wunderbar wild! Er ist Maximilian! Gemeinsam mit einem Psychologen aus Oldenburg sind vor einiger Zeit zwei kurze Songs entstanden. FASD Part 1 beschreibt die Geschichte einer Mutter FASD Part 2 beschreibt Maximilian und er trägt diese Zeilen mit Stolz und zeigt sie, wo immer er kann. Beide Songs findet ihr bei entsprechenden Streaming Plattformen - nehmt sie mit in unsere Gesellschaft.
WOW - what an incredible #FASDAwarenessMonth it's been! As we reach the end of September, we're reflecting on the huge amount of community action, engagement and support there has been this year for FASD awareness and Red Shoes Rock. Check out just some of the highlights in this video 👇 On behalf of all of us at FARE, @nofasd.australia, @naccho_aus and @fasdhubaustralia, we'd like to thank everyone who has joined us this year to raise awareness of the impacts of Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder. A special 'thank you' to our partners at @twoobs for their amazing support! Sign up for updates to get involved next year at www.redshoesrock.org.au #redshoesrock
@BallinloughNational School, Roscommon has become the first school in Ireland to be officially FASD Aware - a milestone for inclusion, understanding, and early support. This is what leadership in education looks like: recognising the needs of neurodiverse learners and creating environments where every child can thrive. FASD affects more students than many realise, and awareness is the first step toward meaningful change. To schools, educators, and those shaping policy: this is a powerful reminder of what’s possible when we prioritise knowledge, compassion, and evidence‑based practice. Let’s make FASD awareness the norm across Ireland — not the exception. Help your school become FASD Aware - contact [email protected] or telephone 065 6703096
