Parenting a teenager can be challenging and parenting a teenager with FASD can be particularly difficult as they transition into adulthood.
This factsheet has been produced by Velma Eyre and has information about:
- the steps you might take during the teenage years to support and prepare your teenager for adulthood.
- what transition planning is, and the Local Authority’s legal obligations towards young adults and their carers.
- needs and capacity assessments – what to look out for.
- options for supported living.
- the legal routes (power of attorney, appointee, deputy) to support your young adult to manage their affairs.
