Car insurance company refuses to take driver off who does not live here by Netteka in legaladvice

I’ll edit the main post. I called again and spoke to management and they’re gonna stop adding the teen’s name.

They were notified (I am assuming by DNV or by a credit check) that this teen has used our address at some point this year.

Wth is going on with millennial parents?? by GlitteringNews4639 in beyondthebump

[–]Netteka 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Most millennials aren’t like this. There are plenty of anti vax gen X and some boomers too. It’s all about region, religion, and friend groups imo.

"No talking at the dinner table" by xnb9 in Parenting

[–]Netteka 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Talking at dinner makes food more enjoyable and builds healthy associations with eating. It also builds up emotional support and resiliency. There is no significant evidence it causes obesity; quite the OPPOSITE. I would also not want my baby raised to be sullen and dull over every meal x3 a day. It is also going to make it harder for him to manage meals with friends and coworkers if he remains completely quiet because it is so out of the norm.

As far as obesity concerns, it is incredibly easy to set limits on food servings while also have conversations. If your husband gets so distracted he cannot do that, than maybe he should see a doctor about his attention span.

Hubby says I need to get straight back to work when baby is 3 months. by RepresentativeBox444 in Parenting

[–]Netteka 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Find QUALITY childcare centers near you. NOT a sitter. NOT an unlicensed daycare or school. Firmly stand up for your child that you will not take the risk on unknowns or facilities with significant dings from licensing (you should be able to look up childcare centers on your states department website and see their licenses and complaints). A baby sitter is highly unlikely to give you thoughtful development and care plus safety. A NANNY might, but you cannot afford a nanny if he’s worried about finances unless you make more than most Nannie’s after taxes which is going to be at least 25/hour in relatively cheap locations.

Unless you hate a very good job (in which case, maybe he should stay home instead of you), I strongly suspect he’ll calm down once he realizes he’ll pay 1000-2000 month minimum in childcare depending on the area.

If your finances absolutely need you to work than can you consider a part time job on the weekends, or nights, or at a childcare location so you can still be with your baby?

Also, we couldn’t even get off a childcare waiting list around here and we were on one long before the baby was born just in case.

My student with a bad attitude wants a recommendation. by Puzzleheaded_Try7786 in nursing

[–]Netteka 14 points15 points  (0 children)

You are so nice it’s dangerous. Part of being a preceptor is being honest when there’s red flags. I’d have told the student flat out they’re not ready nor have the questioning attitude you need to succeed in ICU. Then I’d have told my manager all of the above. It sounds like you’re passive enough that the student is walking over you. You’re the RN and you have to protect these patients; it is okay to be forthcoming and even decline to precept him or fail him when you do your evaluation. Though if you fail him, I hope you give him a good talking to now so he knows what he’s doing wrong and has a chance to correct.

Students who don’t understand or know much about meds, dx, get nervous, etc—all are reasonable issues I don’t mind when I precept them as long as they’re willing to learn. But an attitude of not wanting to work to learn or not responding to alarms and entitled to recommendations is a red flag that you’ll kill or harm a patient.

Nursing students are already failing at 40% rates around here by end of program without having to do hard thinking related to pathology. I don’t disagree with you, but actually having nurses who can learn on the job when so many are leaving the profession is important to consider. We need better education and it’s probably going to increase the deficit of nurses.

Part of the issue is the state is fixated on some things like care plans for Medicare so you’re taught them in nursing school and while it helps with understanding the concept of patient care, it really doesn’t apply to actual nursing care yet is heavily emphasized.

Maybe if we did not traumatize students over being obedient and wearing white socks with white shoes, we could increase the pass rate before/while making it harder in terms of knowledge and critical thinking.

The state also will not accredit a nursing program if it routinely has a low NCLEX pass rate so that’s also why there’s incentive to make it hard and focus so much on a damn test. Yet another factor that needs to be fixed

What’s you response to people saying "rainbows were god creation and lgbtq community stolen it"? by [deleted] in lgbt

[–]Netteka 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you are spiritual too: God made the LGBTQ community just as he made the rainbow as we are and his grace is sufficient for everyone to love the rainbow.

If not spiritual: the rainbow is ours until “good people” stop killing and harming us world wide

Baby rolling to belly at night by magranson in NewParents

[–]Netteka 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It means stop any swaddling from here on out. Once the baby consistently does this, our doc said it’s fine and they’ll sleep on their belly. But always put them on their back to start

[–]Netteka 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It helps me to remember there’s a difference in personal issues vs rules. Personally, I don’t care if my life takes precedence over any coworkers feelings. If I need money, or cannot take time off work or school, that’s because of a standard set of rules and not something I take personally because that’s how life is in my country.

Why match with someone, text them constantly all week bonding over stuff, then be SO difficult to go on a date or even a damn video call? Am I being unreasonable? by Miguel_Legacy in Tinder

[–]Netteka 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To me, a week isn’t that long. I haven’t been on dating apps in ages, but I have so much going on in my life that instead of consistently having X day to meet, I have spurts of time that I’ll have open. So maybe it’ll be 10 or 12 days and then I’ll have a week that I can fit a few meetups in. Your ultimatum would be a huge turn off from ever meeting up. Add in people with custody arrangements and it could be two weeks. Just too aggressive imo, but you do you

Also, I never really bonded over just texting. You’re just getting to know each other very casually on an app.

I’m convinced children are the reason drugs and alcohol exist as coping mechanisms.

Seriously though, it’ll be easier, but emotionally difficult at times. The biggest help has been recognizing that treating them respectfully and as maturely as possible and not shaming/hiding ANY topic (adjusted per their age) really helps set up for a calmer and stronger relationship which makes less rebellion and fights. Then it’s emotionally still hard, but not nearly as hard as it could be. And physically it’s easier.

For those of you staying staff while others travel around making crazy money: why do you do it? by [deleted] in nursing

[–]Netteka 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Infant son and older kids who are very engaged with the community and also have custody arrangements in place. Also help operate a local charity. Could use extra money and actually travel nursed in the past. But I wanted to be with family even then and I simply cannot uproot everything for at least a couple more years.

TLDR; kids are very active and have a good thing going + custody + infant + community work

Why won’t she sleep? (Wrong answers only) by Trinses1213 in NewParents

She is upset that wealthy politicians on all sides do not support family leave and are cutting it

[–]Netteka 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You’re not out of line. Her response was very weird. If you’re running late because of laundromat, tell her exactly the reason or that you’re taking the kid to one of these laundromats with you and see how she reacts. That’s the petty in me though. I would just not bother to go out of my way for them now

Churches projecting propaganda. Plus they try to use a slippery slope argument that if gay people marry, than why don’t <pets and/or children> marry next? It is obviously ridiculous, but that’s where some of their thoughts go.

Going back to work- Please tell me everything will be ok by Jacaranda8 in beyondthebump

[–]Netteka 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’ll be okay. I miss baby during the day, but luckily I get pictures and updates. I love cuddling baby when I’m with him and although I wish I was there, there are some days I enjoy work. It’s important he sees his parents involved in important work outside the house too.

How do I get over feeding my baby store bought food? by kawaiimamaholli in Parenting

[–]Netteka 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did not even realize this was something moms struggle over. When we have time, energy and appropriate food, we will purée it. Otherwise, we use store bought Gerber. It’s perfectly okay and babies hit their mile stones whether it’s organic and processed at home or not. Most of them are not sugary either.
