All three of my children were drug-exposed (cocaine, crack, PCP, you name it. Two are fine, more or less, or as fine as kids can be these days, LOL.

But my older daughter was seriously alcohol exposed, and will suffer the rest of her life for it. Worse, it wasn't FAS... it was much more insidious than that... ARND... which has no "physical" symptoms but has left incurable learning disabilities and emotional problems.

Don't worry so much about the drugs... like the other posters said, there are no guarantees either way. But do worry about alcohol... my beautiful daughter is living proof that it's the worse drug of all.
