Hi, @nojokes Hi OP here. 1) I’m a male nurse and 2) I never said it was just THC. It’s harder drugs, as well. Hence why I’m concerned. I’m NOT concerned about THC as long as they aren’t using every day.

That’s good advice, of course I should talk to them first and “assess the patient”!

I have a conundrum. I am recently engaged and love my fiancé’s family (most of them). However, I became aware of some concerning information. One of her cousins uses drugs and likes to drink, but she’s functioning so I stay out of it. I found out that when her kids (teenage and young adult) are with her and her mother (the kids grandma), they share and encourage the kids to use drugs with them. Whatever they are doing, the kids are offered, and they do use with them. While my fiancé is less concerned about marijuana, she is equally concerned as I that other drugs could lead to very serious adverse health and legal problems for the kids. As a mandatory reporter, should I report this soon-to-be in law and her mom for suspected child endangerment, or should I leave it be out of consideration for my partner and maintaining family dynamics? Struggling with this…

REDOX (wait for it Dropping a class seems like no big deal to some; but for me it is. One more year of school new starts, New moments, New feelings, New chances to sometimes feel a fool but all i know how to do for sure Is give it up to God All I wanna do is check out for a week man Feels like for months I've said it's too much. It's too much. It's TOO MUCH! Stay the course. What'll be when it's someone's life? In your hands? Can you handle? Can you deal? I'm capable I'm smart, passion and love for matters of the heart, and every other body part what comes with But when it comes to matters of the heart you can't see? Sometimes it's like i don't know me from me or me from thee or three from 4 Sometimes I just fall to the floor What scares me most is This is just The beginning. Some days feel like I'm just scraping by But it'll be alright. Cuz what's the other choice of attitude, When you're always comparing yourself to some other dude You'll never measure up That's like saying hey I got this house that I'll Trade ya for flower Any wildflower Because the value assigned in our individual mind To our individual needs and hopes and dreams Is all Relative And no two paths are ever the same No two dreams ever balance the same But they still lead to the same place Because reactants and products Require A catalyst - an impetus for change In infinite time and space, different reactants will create the same products Because no path is ever the same Who's to say what is the road Best Travelled? Just Because reactants aren't always the same Does not mean the Product will not be My Dream

When you say a wide divide, what do you mean? I will be entering nursing school soon and my five-year is to work then pursue my Masters/NP and specialize further from there. Is the divide merely in the way one is viewed because one is a nurse and not a doctor, despite being able to do most things doctors do (e.g. your head of surgery, nurse anesthetists, etc.)?

Sorry yes I see that now. I looked at the wrong UN when commenting.
