Women with fetal alcohol syndrome face huge challenges.
Problems associated with fetal alcohol syndrome don't end when girls grow up. There are hundreds of thousands of women across the country affected by the disorder. They often have poor judgment and struggle just to survive.

Fetal Alchohol Syndrome
Physical birth defects: While the facial characteristics of full FAS are quite well known, prenatal alcohol exposure consistently leads to a number of other birth defects that are not as commonly associated with it in public perceptions. The kidneys and the heart are particularly susceptible as are the eyes and ears and their associated neural connections. Partial deafness and significant visual impairments are common. Balance and motor coordination are also often impaired.
Growth and Development: Girls with FASD tend to be born smaller and to grow much more slowly than other girls. Especially stunted is the growth of the head, which may remain significantly undersized even in adulthood. Some FASD women have heads the normal size for five year old girls.
Attention: Problems with attention are one of the defining characteristics of FASD. Such difficulties are so common amongst women with FASD that they are often misdiagnosed with attention deficit disorders. Unfortunately, the types of attention problems associated with FASD are not the same as those found in women with other attention deficits. Women with classic attention deficit disorder tend to have difficulty focusing and maintaining attention-while those with FASD have fewer problems with those skills, but more trouble shifting attention from one task to another (what researchers call "set shifting").
Cognitive/Learning: Even when it doesn't cause mental retardation, prenatal alcohol exposure can lower IQ and can also affect other aspects of learning. One of its key effects is to slow reaction time and reduce brain processing speed. Both of these affect overall intelligence by limiting the brain's capacity to take in information rapidly, particularly in a setting like an ordinary classroom. Women with FASD also have problems with verbal learning, although these are different from the types of problems seen with verbal learning in Down syndrome. FASD seems to affect people's ability to initially encode verbal information in memory-but once the information is encoded, recall is as good as for anyone else. With Down syndrome, both storage and recall are impaired. Women with FASD also have particular difficulty with learning spacial relationships between objects and with mathematics, deficits which may be connected.
Executive Function: One of FASD's cruelest effects is the way it affects executive function - the ability to plan for the future and to change behavior in response to the effects of previous actions. Women with FASD are often incapable of learning from experience and may repeat behaviors over and over despite negative results. They often cannot put together a sequence of actions in order to achieve a goal-for example, taking the steps necessary to do homework adequately or to pay a bill on time. This may in part result from their inability to shift attention well: they get "stuck" on certain things and cannot keep the whole process in mind while carrying out the steps needed to complete it.

The preservation of life seems to be rather a slogan than a genuine goal of the anti-abortion forces; what they want is control. Control over behavior: power over women. Women in the anti-choice movement want to share in male power over women, and do so by denying their own womanhood, their own rights and responsibilities.-Ursula K. LeGuin

I can't believe that so many women claim that they got pregnant by rape. If I remember correctly there is only about 12-24 hours a woman can conceive. For the people downing Mississippi, yall never have a problem taking our help after any kind of disaster or war.
