I have an elderly man that does the same thing at one of the hospitals in my city. It’s located on Broadway so it’s right on (one of)the main strip(s) in the city. There is a OBGYN clinic attached to the hospital (you can get to it from an outside entrance but I don’t know if it is actually connected with the hospital…

Well, in my case I did file charges and had mounds of evidence but sometimes that.doesn’t make a difference. And at the time I felt more traumatized by the collection of.evidence.than I did by the rape and attempted murder. If I had to do it all over again I’m not sure I’d go thru with the charges and court system. In…

Ifelt as though the hospital sexual assault exam was in a way worse than the actual rape, due to the evidence collection, pictures taken of my naked body (for use in a trial-to be shown to everyone in the court room) multiple doctors, nurses, social worker,etc as well as a detective and other police officers. I think…

That’s the way the gender spectrum/sexual orientation conversation with my 7 year old went. Like, okay, can I have a snack? It’s not “abnormal” to a child if it’s explained in an age appropriate way. He’s like cool, people can love whoever they want and be whoever they feel they want to be. And as he gets older (as…

Excellent comment. That’s all.

Fun Dip.

I obtained new employment in July /August 2008 as a nurse in a hospital and all I had to provide was a photo ID-drivers license and social security card. I wasn’t required to give a birth certificate so obviously the ss card was sufficient for verification purposes. With what you’re saying either your employer was…

Then your employer was doing something wrong. An I9 is done once during pre employment screening. And is illegal to do again after the initial time, hence the outcome of the above article/case.

My husband hates guacamole but loves avocados (he eats them sccoped out of the rind), but I read him your description of the ripeness window of avocados and he was all “YUP!”. I don’t even bother trying to buy them myself. If he wants then I make him get them from the store himself! It’s a pain in the ass!

Same! My favorite is when I’m sick or haven’t slept in days because of thebaby (13 months now) and the other older kids, and he’s all like “oh, I’ll stay up with her don’t worry about her go to sleep, ill see you in the morning” but by 1 am he’s all “I haven’t slept at ALL!” and gets me up. I just want to Fucking slap…

Micro-tears(as in you can’t see them with the naked eye) happen on the penis (as well as in the vagina and anus) during penatrative sex. Transmission of HIV may be easier from P in V intercourse and/or P in A for the “receiver” but that doesn’t make transmission to the “giver” unheard of or impossible. Andyou…

This is FANTASTIC!! Love it! Thanks for posting :)

Perfect comment is perfect!

Head start programs do not have nearly enough. And entrance (at least where I am-NY) is based on need, both financial and educational-like special ed needs (early intervention) other health issues that may indicate a child may fall behind otherwise(including socio-economic status). I’m glad you brought it up though.…

Where do you live that there is free public preschool? The district I’m in has a pre-k program, with very limited enrollment, only for 4/5 years old’s and it’s for 2-2 1/2 hours per day. So it’s not a child care solution by any means. Good for you if you have it though, I’m jealous! And I do agree that it’s in our…

Good point. I didn’t even think of that!

Yep, you are! I have yet to go back to work since having my youngest 13 1/2 months ago. I do have some money coming in monthly which helps, but I would actually be netting less if I went back to work and had to put her in FT daycare, plus my 7 year old would need before/after care. I would be paying quite a bit for…

Good for you. Your (baby’s ) placenta did more good going to scientific research than dragging it around with you(& baby) ever could have. Super unselfish/awesome thing to do. Way to go! I donated my cord blood on my last baby (as the placenta had to go to pathology-she was a preemie and super.mini sized- tho…

Agreed!
