I played ice hockey with a young bloke who had FAS and he was an absolute mess. Zero impulse control, low intelligence and addicted to anything he could get his hands on.
Some of his behaviour would have earned another person a beating but everyone knew and tried… correcting his behaviour a bit more gently.
His dad was clearly making an effort but it was ruining both their lives and he had divorced.
Young bloke ended up offing himself.
On an equally depressing note, once you know what to look for you see FAS fairly regularly in porn.
Had a friend in high school who had an adopted sibling with FAS. Her parents were great people and provided him with opportunities in life that he never would have had otherwise.
But the real hero was that friend, she was his eyes, ears and guardian angel all in one. Nobody fucked with this kid because she was the embodiment of “not the one”

That last one. Ooof. But what specifically?
From Wikipedia, though it is mentioned only 10% of People with FAS have these characteristics.
