Mothers And Drugs: How A Child's Life Is Impacted When She Is An Addict

Abstract: 6 pages in length. Women are cautioned about what they put into their bodies long before they become pregnant; if the pregnancy is unplanned, the mother needs to take immediate measures to modify her diet and habits so they do not harm the growing fetus as soon as she realizes she is with child. From foods to supplements and prescription medications to over-the-counter products, there is nothing that escapes scrutiny when it comes the impact such external influences have upon a developing baby. In light of this understanding, it seems unconscionable that a woman would ingest illicit drugs during her pregnancy when there is no question - both anecdotally and scientifically proven - that such behavior serves to detrimentally impact the fetus's mental and physical formation. Bibliography lists 7 sources.
