Children of veterans exposed to Agent Orange may have suffered from the herbicide, even without ever having been directly exposed. When a parent is exposed to Agent Orange, they can often pass on the ill-effects to their children, causing immediate birth defects, or conditions that manifest later in life.
The pregnancy rate in female veterans who were exposed to Agent Orange shows that there is a higher percentage of miscarriages among these women. They're also more prone to give birth to infants with low birth weights.
Spina bifida is one of the most common immediate signs of Agent Orange birth defects in children of Vietnam veterans. Many children are also born with immediate health concerns such as disfigurement, mental retardation, and cerebral palsy.
As children of Vietnam veterans grow up, they often develop other conditions that have been linked to Agent Orange exposure.
These health complications are tied to having a parent exposed to Agent Orange:
A child of a parent who was a Vietnam veteran may be eligible for disability benefits due to their parent's presumed exposure to Agent Orange. There have been several studies showing Agent Orange can be passed to children of Vietnam veterans, and you may be able to claim disability benefits if you suffer conditions related to this toxic chemical.
