As a first time mom in my mid thirties, I will say it is super hella hard to find the energy most days. Recovery post delivery was a beast. As an OB nurse I see these 20 year olds recover in no time flat, and have the desire to have another! Definitely harder in your 30's.

Delusional. All the way. He and Yeezy could be brothers.

Completely on board with this! Empowering young people is the way to go.

Yes, yes, yes! Watching them eat is absolutely fascinating! They always look so awkward when eating.

Then why ask the question? (Sarcasm)

Pull out method is surprisingly effective when used consistently

Yuh, people will have sex. But access to affordable birth control is what I’m after here. Helping to end the poverty cycle through planning parenthood is my point.

I agree- these issues need attention. Planned parenthood does excellent things for the community.

I believe a young person’s best way out of poverty is through access to education, trade school, etc.

Yes! Sex Ed, easily accessible condoms and abortion services! I am a strong advocate of those things!

Not sure eugenics is the right word, but I fail to comprehend why people think having a child and not having the resources to pay for its care is acceptable, commendable, or reccomemded. It is a human being!

So maybe the problem is not so much poverty, it’s having children while in poverty that’s the problem.

Middle class person here with a baby on the way! I would like this, too! My tax dollars go towards subsidized daycare, yet I don't have much left over to afford cost of daycare for my own child! Preschool will be on my own dime, too.

Currently 36 weeks pregnant here. To help pay for my FMLA leave, I did not take a single day of vacation last year. If I am granted all 12 weeks, I'll be taking roughly 2 months unpaid leave. I do think paid maternity leave is a good idea, but I don't know how it would be paid for. I calculated my taxes last year, and…

Cameras to observe all patients? What kind of swanky ER did you work at? We only had cameras to observe our 5 bed psych area.

I don’t know you. So yes.

There should be a disclaimer for hospital nursing jobs: if breaks to eat and toilet are important to you, make sure you work in a state with nursing unions. Because that ish ain't happening here!

I was explicitly told by my nurse supervisor that as an ER nurse I would not eat lunch in the cafeteria for precisely that reason - too far from the ER in the event a trauma rolled in.

Depends on how financially strapped the hospital is.

You can't divert an ambulance because you need to eat. Charge nurse wants to fill the beds with patients, not let them fill the hallways/waiting room and potentially die.
