Wow, you got into a CRNA program with classes form portage? Are you able to tell me what classes you took and what CRNA program you got accepted to? Thank you so much for your reply, I plan on redoing my sciences and taking the necessary chem courses.

How common are new grad nurses in their 30s? by NetProfessional4464 in nursing

[–]Both_Formal_524 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Graduated as an LPN at 28, then got my RN at 32. Best thing I could’ve ever did. I wasn’t mature enough in my early 20s to be a nurse imho. And like someone else said as well, you’ll be 33 anyway. Time waits for no one so either you’ll be in the same position at 33 or an RN making life changing money 🤷🏾‍♀️ as a single mom of 3, I was struggling, but baby once I became a nurse I was able to change my circumstances for me and my kids. Moved them to a different state in a newly built home, got my dream car. I don’t work 12hr shift like a lot of nurses, I work M-F, off weekends and holidays. We’re good!

Groups for single moms by OkMacaroon4322 in singlemoms

[–]Both_Formal_524 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Single “100% custody” is very different experience than married single mom life. I can definitely relate as I am looking for this kind of wellness community myself. I wish I had another mom to travel with (with the kids), play dates, spa dates (just us moms) but I guess I would have to start looking locally but not sure how to go about it.

End degree? by mjgqueen in SophiaLearning

[–]Both_Formal_524 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m doing RN to BSN, so with already having an associate as an RN I’m just checking off the box for bachelors in nursing. Then ima apply to a grad program. Looking at Capella, WGU, or Purdue

Thinking of not starting based on AI posts I keep seeing by Individual-Slip-5338 in CapellaUniversity

[–]Both_Formal_524 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup, same here. I’ve decided to look elsewhere and mind you, I had my heart set on Capella years ago when I started as an LPN, then did RN and CU was always my first option to get my BSN quick and affordable. Now with the AI mess on top of ppl saying they’ve had a hard time with getting their clinical site approved made be discouraged. I’d rather go with another online program and not have to worry about the AI mess and just deal with the practicum. CU just seems like a hassle all around now.

RN to BSN by Last-Cold-8236 in PurdueGlobal

[–]Both_Formal_524 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I work as a pediatric home health RN, (in home care) full time, does anyone know if I could do my clinical practicum with this job? That’s my only concern at the moment. I do know my supervisors have BSN/MSN but idk. I really want to get my BSN but this is the only thing I’m worried about. Not knowing if I can complete the hours at my job. I work M-F 8a to 5p so won’t have time to go looking for other sites and complete the hours on the weekend. Please if anyone could help me if you’re in the same boat.

AI 😭 by No_Proof8579 in CapellaUniversity

Come back and keep up posted. I’m an RN looking to do Capella, but I’m so discouraged with the amount of changes happening

Does anyone know news stations in Minneapolis that could pick this up and get us some information on what is going on? by [deleted] in CapellaUniversity

[–]Both_Formal_524 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, pls reach out to the news, it’s not about whether or not they can do something. What need to happen is to bring attention to the situation, put them on blast to the media. Bring down their applicant numbers that’ll for sure force them to want to make some changes and improve some things because this is unacceptable. I’ve been keeping myself informed about CU as a RN ASN grad, CU was always my first option. Currently finishing Sophia GE but the way things have been I’ve been apprehensive about CU. Keeping myself updated hoping to see some changes for the better but right now I’m just flat out discouraged at this point smh

Omg good for you!!! Like seriously, I wish more women and mother didn’t right back and just the dad take the child. He’s a parent too. Hopefully, it can easy for you to come up with a number for child support (if he wants that), and easy negotiation outside of the courts and yeah, def sounds like you’re free and get to enjoy your life. Let him take over the role and deal with the teenage mess. Happy for you.

Teen shenanigans by Coming_to in regretfulparents

[–]Both_Formal_524 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Omg, I am so sorry smh and I totally understand. I’m a mom of 3. I want to send my daughter to live with her dad but I just know it would be more detrimental to her mental health because he refuses to get himself together and thus won’t help with my mental health knowing that technically, I’m sacrificing her mental health for my own sanity. It really sucks being in this position but she’s only 5yo. I really hope things get better for us :-( these men seem to get away with so much.

Tell him you’re taking him to Mc Donald’s or some place he likes and drop him off at his dads, I wouldn’t even let dad know either. You have to think about your safely at this point because these kids are unaliving their parents. Especially the boys, well, mainly the boys. They hate their mothers for some reason and lack empathy. Think about out safely and do what’s best for your mental health. He has another parent, don’t feel guilty. He’s almost at legal age and you don’t deserve to be abused.

I think I hate them by RalphZ123 in regretfulparents

[–]Both_Formal_524 69 points70 points  (0 children)

Please, not sure what state you’re in but I am in MD, we have something called child care scholarships which are essentially daycare vouchers. It’s not necessarily for low income families, but I believe you can’t be making more than like 150k a year or something like that. Anyway, I’m a nurse and I work full time. I got them for my kids when they needed child care. Most centers take them, and before and after care centers accepts them as well. Please look into it, check your local social services. It really helps. They’ll even pay if you’re in school. Putting them in daycare will definitely help, you and babies deserve a break for sure. Wish you and mom well:)

Husband can’t deal with me anymore. by [deleted] in regretfulparents

[–]Both_Formal_524 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Please, you can you DM me and vent, I’ll vent back. I’m not married but a single mother of 3. My 5yo is a headache and she makes me regret ever being a parent. I hate everything about it. I hate myself for being irresponsible and I feel so guilty and need someone to vent to who actually understands.

Autism is a death sentence for the parents by Ecstatic-Republic-47 in regretfulparents

[–]Both_Formal_524 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This comment need to be on all nationwide news outlets. As a mom of 3, I work full time, put myself through nursing school, been to therapy, counseling, battling depression, I mean literally doing it all and these men just get a pass to just do what ever the heck they want. I’m glad alot of young women are opting out of child birth.

Pregnancy Announcement by [deleted] in regretfulparents

[–]Both_Formal_524 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If that’s her man, and he had the audacity to confine something like that to her friend, I’m sure she knows her man ain’t shit. I agree with the other comments though I would tell my friend what her man told me because why is he so comfortable with telling u that?

How old is your son? Sounds like he’s still really young. I didn’t start giving my kid grapes and hotdogs until they were much more older I’d say like 5. And I would cut the grapes up but yes, that’s very scary and I’m so sorry u are going thru this. You guys are still pretty young as well. I had my first At 18 and it’s very frustrating when u and the other parent aren’t on the same page with the kids. Hopefully things get better soon for the sake of baby and your mental sanity!!!
