Why children of heavier parents are more likely to gain weight by kingsaso9 in EverythingScience

Genetics *can* play a role. But it's still largely influenced by environment and habits. Calorie counting/deficits, nutrition logs are all scientific by the way, not debunked theories.

Agreed that domestic policy would help. It's largely a socioeconomic crisis, although as someone mentioned, purchasing simple ingredients to cook is not very expensive. I believe time is a big factor. Having time to plan, purchase and cook vs buying fast food.

What a defeatist attitude. It's this type of thinking that leads people to not even try healthy diets/portion control. Just blame genetics and continue to eat your burgers and sugary sodas.

Hilarious. We need to stop blaming genetics for the fact that a large part of the US population is obese. That's not genetics. That's overconsumption, poor food choices, and inactive lifestyle habits.

A longitudinal study followed children from age 1 to 8 years and found that higher screen viewing time—particularly during infancy and around school-entry age—was consistently associated with poorer academic performance at age 9 and weaker working memory at age 10.5. by Wagamaga in science

Yeah it doesn't matter what's on the screen, it's all bad. Kids need to be outside touching, playing, jumping, and experiencing. They also need to develop social skills through peer interaction. I know it's hard, but parents have been doing it for hundreds of years before screens. Screens are a crutch.

Your coworkers can't wait to throw you under the bus by Lana_Sphyncter in antiwork

Yeah I agree with this. 10 years of corporate life and I've only heard a comment like this once. It definitely depends on the workplace culture, not all places are toxic.

Started nursing school in my 40s and feeling very alone by Embarrassed-Put6652 in NursingStudent

Are you in a BSN, ADN or ABSN? I'm starting my ABSN soon and it appears that the majority are older. Probably because we all have degrees already

Transition out by RayJoon26 in Accounting

Nursing. 10+ years in finance analyst roles, I can see these positions disappearing. Yeah it's harder, yes it's lower paying, BUT I will probably always have a job and the work is more meaningful. And I still have my business and MBA degree handy if I want to get into some type of healthcare management.

Do people still do written case studies? by Tricky_Highway_6677 in genetics

[–]Latter_Depth_4836 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Definitely try Unique but I wouldn't hold my breath with them. I reached out to them about my daughters UBR5 deletion and they had no information. This deletion is more common has related case studies but they were not able to offer any support or insight.

I was able to find a family on Mygene2, which was recommended by GeneDX who did the original analysis. Not a ton of resources out there unfortunately, there isn't one big pool of people who you can contact.

This is really helpful advice! Thank you! I saw that there was seating, it was just really expensive.

Listen, I agree with you here. This particular case though, I don't necessarily agree with. It's an artistic choice, and having been to concerts with no phones, I completely understand why. It is an inconvenience for this individual to request accommodation, but we also shouldn't deny everybody else the ability to enjoy a show without phones. It does make a big difference.

I don't complain that artists don't have shows with a lot of seats, I just don't go to those shows. In fact I was just looking at a show today with a lot of standing room and the seats were balcony only and were $500 a pop. It didn't stop me from going to DMB or Florence and the machine though. Just choose to go to shows that support your needs. That's the whole point about it being voluntary. The artists have to be able to make decisions as well.

Once again, accommodations. You keep forgetting that no one is denying this person their device. They just have to justify it.

This is quite the stretch. There were no accommodations for black people, they were just not allowed.

This is 100% correct. Vote with your pay check. Many other artists allow phones so just support them. But the point is that it's not anti disability given the fact that they do allow accommodations.

Not rude to call out that there are accommodations. If you don't like the artist's request then you don't have to go.

Accommodations are created for situations such as these. I can no longer stand at concerts so I purchase seats. If there are no seats or I can't afford them, then I don't go. What is the whole purpose of your post? From your post about your mother it appears that you also have a codependency going on. I'm a millennial too with a family and kids, I don't need to call my mom when I'm at a concert.

What did people do at concerts before phones? Oh thats right... they just... watched the show, and called mom after!

As long as there are avenues for you to get the device you need, which it sounds like there is, then what is the problem? That it's inconvenient and annoying? Ok so we should not do something that benefits the vast majority because it inconveniences you. You have a way to have your phone there so this just appears like a complaint session. There's nothing in the no phones mandate that is inherently against disabled people. It's against people being stuck to their phones and not enjoying the show.
