I hate it when parents use nurses, doctors, etc. to threaten their children to behave. For instance, "if you're bad, that nurse will give you a shot". Not good. Well, now I've heard it all. I got to my little old patient's home and the sister/caregiver was yelling, "Oh boy, just you wait now. The nurse is here, she'll put your butt in a nursing home." This does not set the stage for a therapeutic interaction. Also the patient pinched me. Can't say as I blame her.
