We also examined relations between current caregiver alcohol use (i.e., when the children were 14 years old) and all outcomes (Table 6). Current caregiver drinking was unrelated to any birth measure or to teen IQ. In contrast, after controlling for potential confounders, current caregiver AAD and AADD were related to some behavior problems that were predicted by retrospective AAD and AADD, specifically increased teen Conduct Disorder, Anxiety/Depression, and Rule Breaking. Current caregiver AAD was also related significantly to teen Total Externalizing behavior. However, current caregiver AAD and/or AADD were also related to several outcomes not predicted by either retrospective or antenatal report, including Affective Disorder, Anxiety Disorder, Inattention, and Social, Thought and Other Problems (Table 6).
