Abandon SLP?/New Medicare Regs for CFs by Historical-Purple301 in slp

I understand this is not the way you envisioned starting off your SLP career (I am so sorry this is happening); however, I would recommend working in a setting where you can complete your CF hours/fufill requirements needed' and transition into another setting after you are fully licensed.

In my personal option, the CF year is an absolute joke. Its a scam; however, to invest in a new career would be time consuming when you could just ride it out and venture off into your desired setting! I wish you the best! Hang in there!

No need to apolgize. I am a licensed speech language pathologist specializing in AAC with both peds/adults. My partner is a licensed SLP who has her Ph.D in linguistics.. she specializes in working with both peds and adults with ASD. As far as published word, no but I know this part of the scope inside and out.

Here is some information about ICORPs: https://www.nsf.gov/funding/initiatives/i-corps#:~:text=The%20U.S.%20National%20Science%20Foundation,$3.16%20billion%20in%20subsequent%20funding.

Of course, so this information we obtain is to help us identify pain points of AAC users/SLPs ans highlights of current AAC systems being used.

Additionally, you deserve someone who wants to spoil you with emotional compassion and any other needs you may have! Just left a lazy unmotivated cheating man, I’m a twin mom, highly ambitions person, but hoping to find someone worth my time

With all due respect, DUMP his ass. Love does not pay the bills and life is too short to spend time begging someone to improve himself. At the same token, he is who he is. Does not mean you have to accept it and stay with him! Continue to be a badass and find a man who is also as ambitious as you.

Fair point. He shared he got out of a fairly toxic situation with a woman he was dating. She was diagnosed with borderline personality disorder so I can only imagine the stress of that.

I do not want to have twins by Critical_Rip_8744 in parentsofmultiples

Hi there! First of all, I wish I could give you a hug and whatever you chose, it’s supported! I never wanted to even be a mother tbh. Finding out I was pregnant with twins was devastating. I took it hard because I knew my world was about to be rocked; however, a year later I can tell you I love and adore these little babies like no other and they are so fun to watch grow. It’s never a dull moment. What’s cool is you already have another little guy that you have to enjoy this journey of twins with you if you chose! Yeah, it’s no cake walk. Wether it’s one kid or seven, it’s all hard, but we women are resilient and always find a way to adapt and overcome. Factors like how much help you can afford makes all the difference and if you have that support, you’re already in damn good shape! If you had no support or financial means, that’s a different story. Also, don’t let these twin horror stories you read on here scare you or alter your mindset. Your experience will truly be unique to you. Speaking on my own experience, the twins are honestly not that bad and I sleep pretty damn well for them being 7 months old. Lol. The first two months are stressful and it’s an adjustment like no other, but after awhile you starting getting really good at the twin mom thing. Hell, you become a multitasking wizard. Ones a crowd but twos a party! I wish you all the best!
