3. Family issue..Thoughts?

   lovinglife2015 replied to jrabbit619's topic in General Students

   I was speaking about my own experience. That said, you did mention that your mom raised you and your siblings alone, so people inferred that your dad was absent. If he's a positive presence in your...

   lovinglife2015 replied to jrabbit619's topic in General Students

   Couples break up, that's no excuse to abandon your children. Who knows what the circumstances were for OP's parents, but in general, just because a relationship fails, it doesn't justify a parent...

6. Death of a Dream

   lovinglife2015 replied to OrganizedChaos's topic in General Nursing

   Seriously? OP gets kudos for wanting to raise her kids? How patronizing. Anywhooo...if that was OP's stance from the start, why create a post in the first place? Why apply to jobs an hour away if you...

7. How to handle a coworker who is giving poor care

   lovinglife2015 replied to TigerGalLE's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

   ...and what was your reply? In all of your examples, you keep leaving out the part where you told her that her behavior and treatment is inappropriate. Are you afraid to speak up and react on the spot...

8. Death of a Dream

   lovinglife2015 replied to OrganizedChaos's topic in General Nursing

   It's not that I "hate" my mom per se, I just happen to cherish boundaries, privacy and being able to be intimate with my husband whenever and wherever the mood arises in our home. Most people that...

9. Death of a Dream

   lovinglife2015 replied to OrganizedChaos's topic in General Nursing

   Oh, please. I'm not attacking OP. I'm offering a different perspective. Not every opinion is going to blow cookies and cream up your booty, nor should it. A grown woman/mother/wife at age 26 is...

10. Death of a Dream

    lovinglife2015 replied to OrganizedChaos's topic in General Nursing

    My apologies, but that's my 2 cents. The longer the thread goes, the sicklier you get. Can you raise another child with your poor health? That's something to consider. I'm from the South, as...

    lovinglife2015 replied to OrganizedChaos's topic in General Nursing

    You said previously that you were saving money. Since you're not paying rent, put aside that money to fund the move. We can either be victims of life circumstances or make better choices and break...

13. Death of a Dream

    lovinglife2015 replied to OrganizedChaos's topic in General Nursing

    ''Ahhhhh...moving would probably be a good idea. You're only 26, but you'll be 30 in the blink of an eye. Trust me it goes fast, especially when you have kids. Having a solid 5 year plan would help,...

14. Death of a Dream

    lovinglife2015 replied to OrganizedChaos's topic in General Nursing

    Your husband can't go to a trade school? Plumbers are making $70-80K a year. Or has he resigned himself to a life of poverty? Our parents won't be around to bail us out forever. At some point we have...
