For three days, last week, the NineZero Team shared their message with 35 middle school girls who stayed after school to hear the information on their own time, not school time. They were full of energy, comments, and QUESTIONS. What was striking to me was they were able to quickly grab on to the 6 week window where a woman does not know she is pregnant yet can damage her baby by the consumption of alcohol. They understood the impact and ramifications of that reality more quickly than some of the high school students do. These young ladies were truly surprised of the damage and became advocates for healthy babies, like Baby Jordan (who they named), our "healthy" Baby Think it Over. One class we were without PowerPoint and I have to stay that was fun to present creatively to get them to grasp fetal alcohol.
