Thanks! I was actually referring to your use of the term "powerlessness" and what you meant by that phraseology. I'd love to learn from you if you wouldn't mind sharing .... it's all so new to me and the career path that I came from does not seem to have that issue at all. Thanks again!

If you want to see the stuff posted here about lateral violence just use the all nurses.com search. If you want to get a general outlook on it use the google seach. You can look up horizontal violence also. Matter of fact you might get better results from that term on google. Amazon.com will cough up a lot of books on the subject of horizontal vilolence also.
