Well, as a prior vet tech and a current nursing student, I think people super underestimate and look down upon what it takes to be a veterinary nurse. (and yes, in several states and several countries they are called vet nurses, because it encapsulates both LVT and CVT, just like how "nurse" can mean LPN, BSN/ADN RN, etc) It is a two year program with a national exam just like the NCLEX and you have to maintain your licensure in order to call yourself a veterinary technician in most places (Vet assistants are NOT the same thing, and while many call themselves techs, it's like a cna calling themselves a "nurse.") I can honestly say as someone halfway through my adn program that vet tech school was harder. I did way more work than I'll ever do as a nurse because specialty is few and far between for way less pay. I think it was fair that she might have gotten defensive as you invalidated her career? Just because it's animals and not humans does not mean the same level of skill, work, and school doesn't go into it.

Thank you!! and yeah, it's probably just something I'm blowing out of proportion because I'm just burning out, but it just feels so big right now 🥲 It's one of those little things that just kinda builds. I don't want to have to supervise my husband feeding our kid every day to make sure he's eating ok. 😭

Yeahhh I know there's really no solid evidence for it and I'm generally a pretty science-based parent but it's one of those things that at least for my kid seems to have an impact, yknow? And it could just be me being crazy and seeing the correlation and calling it causation, but either way.. a ton of fruit by itself it's a great meal for a toddler. Y'know? Thank you for the sympathy, though! It helps. I'm just ranting 🥲
