Quizplus · Accepted Answer

FASD (Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder) is often mistaken for other conditions and is frequently undiagnosed in childhood. As a result, individuals with FASD may have difficulties with impulsivity, understanding social cues, and making appropriate decisions, which may lead to involvement in the justice system. Therefore, FASD comes to the attention of police and the courts rather than the health system.
