How do LPNs View themselves?

Hey I was just wondering something, guys. Do you feel the role of LPNs/LVNs is to assist the RN in duties and help them out in any way you can, or do you feel more like an independent entity?

I work under my own license and for most of my career thus far I've worked in charge or supervisory positions, and within my scope of practice.
