How does the title of this thread have anything whatsoever to do with your question? Here I think I'm clicking on a post where someone needs advice and maybe I have something to offer. But no, you want to know how to work from home. Well good luck with that, when you figure it out let us know because WE ALL WISH WE COULD WORK FROM HOME!

Yes to this one. I have had babies where the parents want me to do this also. And you are right, it is because that is what the baby is used to and the baby is comfortable like that. I was just always sure to have enough sleep so I never accidentally fell asleep. And I never did. When I am in a home and parents ask me to do something that is out of the normal (which is hard to tell what is out of the normal since you are in a private home and not a hospital setting), I always went by this rule: I would only do or behave as I would if my supervisor was to walk in the room. So if I'm sleeping and she walks in the room, well obviously that is a huge no no and she should really fire me. But if I'm laying with the baby with my eyes wide open and totally awake and my boss walked in, she would understand what is taking place. Another thing I always did, and this was just to cover my butt because you never know how people are going to be (especially when you are in their home and not a hospital setting), was when I laid with the baby, even though I was right next to her so she could feel me there, I would have her covered with a blanket and NEVER cover myself. Always had the door open also.

That's why it says for example. I didn't realize there could be any accurate and not accurate examples.

Actually it means that I have to keep repeating myself because you keep asking the same thing in different ways.

What you do with your paycheck is not my business. FOR EXAMPLE: let's say we have an alcoholic. He/she pays for his/her alcohol with their paycheck, right? Okay, now instead of paying that person and letting him make his own choice of what to do with his paycheck, (which, by the way, is HIS right), how would you feel about cutting out the middle man and just buying his alcohol for him? Their IS a difference.

ONCE AGAIN, there are laws currently in place that businesses have to follow. Making me pay for your birth control should not be one of them and it isn't. In THIS case the business owners "preference" is his/her right to their religious freedom. Your generalized questions, such as what I believe the government can't/shouldn't make laws about is not helpful to this conversation... we are discussing ONE SPECIFIC aspect.. which is the courts decision.

She was using the tummy tuck as an example. And it made perfect sense to me. People (other people; this is not directed at you, Student Mom) keep asking the same questions over and over again in different ways, maybe some examples will help them understand or at least accept the views of others; and maybe some illustrations and coloring books will help others who do not seem to understand the words. Do you honestly believe if you continue to fight about this issue that you will be changing any minds/beliefs/religious views? Instead of posters behaving like they have been victimized by this court decision, maybe it's time to agree to disagree. But if they'd prefer, they can continue pestering the people who don't agree with them and I, for one, will be more than happy to keep explaining the same thing over and over again until it sinks in. Be a big girl and go buy your own birth control.

Who's freedom of choice? You and I already have the freedom of choice. If you want to use birth control, use it. It's not my business and I don't care. How are employers dictating your reproductive choice? Does the employer tell you when you can and can't have sex, who you can and can't have it with, how many children you should or shouldn't have?? This makes ZERO sense. "Corporations are entities that make money from the sweat of people's backs"...... REALLY?? All of them huh? So if your mom and dad had a little mom and pop store, they are a corporation that makes money from the sweat of your back? Should the government come in and tell your mom and dad, "Hey, screw your religious freedoms, even though you built this business with your bare hands and have slaved and slaved to keep this business.... we are making you provide birth control to your employees!" Well, poor mom and dad, they are just another corporation that makes their money from the sweat off OUR backs. A free economy is what our economic system is based on, that means business, if there were no big business we would not have jobs.

Hey, if it's in the careplan.......

:roflmao: I'm rolling, laughing so hard at both your responses! :roflmao:

Oh good grief! This could go in so many wrong directions. How about.... Helping dad relieve tension the way mom does. Ewwww

LOL

OH! Well duh, my bad. I was concerned for a minute that we had a nurse tying things around babies' necks. You never know, there are some real looney tunes out there.

Please report this woman to the State Board of Nursing, even if it's anonymous. Think of the other nurses she will be allowed to continue to do this too after you leave. Because of her negligence something very bad is bound to happen. Isn't there some statute that says we must report something like this.... it's considered negligence. What if something happens a year from now and someone brings your name into it, saying you knew this was going on and did nothing about it.... even then it could still come back and haunt you. Reporting her is not out of revenge or in any way spiteful, it's to protect patients and other staff members. This is just bad.

How can you say business are not people? If you started a business and it is your business, how is it okay for the government to tell you that you MUST provide birth control to employees? That is YOUR business an this is a free economy. Nobody is forcing the employee to stay there; if they don't like what the employer has to offer, move on. My business, MY freedom of religion.
