When I lived in Saskatoon, I knew a woman (white) who adopted two Indian children. This would have happened in the 1970's. She cared for these two boys well and at least once a year, made visits with the boys to their birth mother(who lived in Saskatchewan). The boys were brothers. The older boy, when he was a teenager, was diagonosed with Fetal Alcohol Syndrome. May I point out FAS was then a new diagnosis. Well, when the older boy left home, he lived on the street. He got into crime. He was sent to prison.(short sentence). When he was 22 or so, he was partying, and he took an overdose somehow, and died. The second boy seems to have done well. This boy on becoming an adult, returned to an Indigenous community, married, had babies. The mother, my friend, went through much heart ache over the older boy. I report this example, because I think these cases are more complex than journalists, or politicans report. By politicans, I mean both white and Indian politicans.
