Question: If an infant is born with fetal alcohol syndrome, is he/she considered an alcoholic? I'm doing a report on Fetal alcohol syndrome and the question has to do with my thesis.  I cannot find much on it.

Answer: An alcoholic is one who has a physical or psychological compulsion to consume excessive alcohol.  No infant has this condition, they all consume lots of milk or formula.  The baby has FAS, not alcoholism.
