    dt70 replied to dt70's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    dt70 replied to chacha82's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    You working ahead was probably the catalyst for her to act that way later on. Her later behavior may have been out of character. Give her the benefit of the doubt and talk to her in private about how...
