Rich Skank, Poor Skank

Generally speaking, people associate the rich with privilege, availability to the best.  Best education, best tutors, best doctors, best therapists, best everything.  Generally, filthy rich people don't have to work and those who are rich but do work have spouses that shouldn't have to work - and often don't anyway.  There should be no reason on earth that their children should be deprived of ANYTHING, especially their parents example as role models.  But where are the parents?  They're off on world cruises, movie debuts, fashion shows in Europe, ski trips to Aspen or the Alps. Their kids are home with nannies and au pairs who raise them because it's their job.


Most poor people, unfortunately for them, are often lumped into the entire group of "welfare moms".  There are some "welfare moms" who are just as dispicable as the rich who have no time for their children, waste their time on men instead of their kids, waste what little money they have on drugs; but then again there are some "welfare moms" who haven't had a good education and have to have minimum wage jobs, those who made bad choices about teen sex and ended up pregnant, or those who aren't even welfare moms at all but hard-working single parents who have to work 2 jobs and are STILL poor.  They're not with their children because they CAN'T be.  They can't work to support them and be there too.  The outcome is all the same...the kids get their examples from TV, music, sports, or the streets.  What is really sad though is that nowadays the example the poor kids get from entertainment are usually the skanks that came from privileged background a la Angelina Jolie, Paris Hilton, Nicole Ritchey, Britney Spears, Gotti boys, Drew Barrymore, etc.


Here is the REALLY scary part sm
I have heard that Medicare will not reimburse anyone unless they use EMR. They are starting this in 2009 and hope to have the changeover complete by 2014
But did your mom go on to bring more kids into that situation? That's a big part of the problem.

hence the difference between a rich skank & a poor one is?
.
How dare you? I used to live in a trailer and was not a skank

A lot of girls growing up with privilege like she had turned skank.

If your definition of skank is a female who is openly promiscuous with no regard for others, low morals, and is proud of it, there are a lot of them.  Paris Hilton, Nicole Ritchey, Britney Spears, Jessica Simpson (claims to be a religious girl -yeah right), Jenna Jamison, etc...there are a lot of them out there. 


Have you seen Brad act lately?
I don't think he is a rocket scientist.
I used to like Brad Pitt. Now, not at all.
I can't stand Angelina Jolie, either, but I didn't like her long before the Brad Pitt thing.
What does Angelina see in Brad??
He's so babyish and effeminate.
Brad Pitt is not bisexual....just FYI...jes saying..
to each his/her own
I agree about Brad Pitt, except he's not aging well...
Aren't men supposed to get better looking as they age?  Maybe he was too beautiful.
It's that yellow hair that makes Brad look old.
Horse Whisperer.  He and Newman both are classics that will ALWAYS be hunks in my eyes!
Prince Charles or Brad Pitt?
What do they wear underneath those kilts?  Boxers or briefs?
Brad Pitt, sushi, and Corona..
3 of my favorite things...yum yum
i used to like brad until angelina. what's up with that. she is CRAZY as in NUTZ
Can't forget image of Angelina lip kissing her brother for an extended period of time and then there was Billy Bob and the vial of his blood she wore around her neck. I just think Brad might be crazy by association.
But where are the Brad Pitts, Susan Sarandons, etc.etc.
They were some of the first to stand up and beg for money for tsunami victims.  Where are they today?
Brad Pitt and Orlando Bloom!

Oh Yeah! Brad Pitt's got NOTHING on your husband!

What a guy! 


He really "took my breath away." 


Thanks for sharing with all of us.


Brad Pitt - twig and berries - love it

Brad Pitt, George Clooney. Cool guys who don't take themselves too seriously.

I watch them even in their bad movies but has anybody seen Brad Pitt in one of his first movies A River Runs Through produced by Robert Redford.  OMG, he is a beautiful man. 


George Clooney is cool and not bad to look at.  Not full of himself either.


 


i don't see babyish or effeminate at all but both brad and angelina are kind of like charactertur
of what the ideal male and female should look like.  they are both jokes at this point.  neither to be taken seriously.  sad how hollywood dements the brains of the narcissistic into thinking they are something they are not.
The easy part is making the decision to leave, the hard part is
actually doing it.  Been in your shoes and it took me a year and a half to leave after I had made the decision to do so.  It was the best thing I have ever done for myself and my girls.  I had family and friends and a counselor telling me what needed to be done and I knew what needed to be done but until I had the courage on my own to do it I stayed.  One day, we had an argument and he spit in my face and that was the last straw for me.  Even though it is something that I will NEVER forget, that day is also a day I will never forget because it is the day that I took my kids and left.  I am a single mom of 2 and have been single and supporting us for 5 years now.  I have been healing ever since and still am to this day.  You can do this.  I know that if I hadn't have left and I would have stayed one of us would be dead by now or both. 
Do little kids like caramel? My big kids won't even eat it! We make the basic Baker's chocolat

I never said you shouldn't have kids! Feeling guilty? I asked WHY you had kids.
You clearly stated in your post that you ship the kids off to camp all day, and they're TIRED AT NIGHT!!  You know exactly what you said.  You said it as a PERK - AS IN GREAT! They're gone all day, it wears them out, and so I shovel dinner in their mouths and off to bed!  You can try to paint it any way you want, but YOU SAID IT.  Again, I only hope your kids never hear you speak that way or write that way. Shame on you.  Why have kids at all?  Just another parent who has them, gets rid of them for day AND night, BRAGS ABOUT IT, and then calls ME wicked!  Give me a break!  Camp is fine - its WHAT YOU SAID AND YOU KNOW IT.  Your own words showed your heart. Period.
Kids are demanding and so is MT work. My question is how CAN you do this with kids, rather than how
When you have two young kids, 11 months apart, (like I stated they are now 4 and 5) and have been doing this since they were born with no help from their father and no family around, YES, the kids get neglected. Part time might work but living on one salary, part time, is not an option. How can you possible tell me that anyone with two young kids can stay at home and work a full-time, 8-hour shift, and still give their kids the attention they NEED. I dont care how good you are at multitasking and how great your organizational skills are. It is a very difficult thing to do. And I am offended by your post making it sound as if it is easy to do.

I do agree that it can depend on how well your kids behave and how well they are able to play on their own. But my kids were not able to play well on their own. They needed constant attention.

So please take the time to realize that there are people out there in different situations than your own.

Reading our posts should help you to understand that everyone has a different situation. I believe everyone should have the right to shares their experiences as it might benefit the original poster in her questions and concerns.

I dont think anyone should be bashed for taking the time out to write about their experiences. I dont usually come on here to argue but you really ticked me off with your post. And try reading the post correctly. I said next time around I would have put them in day care. What I DID do with them was set them up to an activity like art or put on a movie for them. Geez.
Stayed "because of the kids?" I say "leave because of the kids"
You're in no position to buy right now. Keep saving, keep paying down your bills, and for heaven's sake get rid of that dead weight of a BF you're living with. You can do better.
So, should I return the $75 (x2 kids) in music cards I got the kids for x-mas...sm
My son has been telling me about free music sites and I was very leary.  How do they skirt the law Radguy?
I don't have kids, but my Mom was from the "old school," and still had everyone, kids inclu

call her by her first name.  The little neighbor girl next door from the time she could speak called her Aggie (my mom's first name), and they were great buddies until the day my mom pased away. 


I don't think there really is much in a name, but more in the respect you are given and the way you are treated.   Personally, I kind of cringe inside when someone calls me Ms. Anything or God forbid, "maam" (makes me feel like Methuselah!) ... I'm always just plain Merrie.  :-)


But, as someone pointed out, to each his own.  If you want to be addressed a certain way, you have that right, and people should respect that.  I'm glad you corrected the child ... hope it "sticks."    


Please do not simply give up, kids or no kids!
Talk with a professional. This can be worked through if he really puts forth the effort and you participate. The right counseling can truly make your marriage even better than it was before, if BOTH parties are willing to be honest. Give it a try. Nothing to lose at this point and everything to gain!
scary
It is scary to think how narrowed minded people can be. Plantation mentality is alive and well in the South....So help us all....
Scary
Your last 2 paragraphs made absolute sense. I always thought, even back "in the day," that dictation to transcription was archaic.

However, I fit into the "over-educated but don't know how to get in out of the rain MT" category, so scary thought because if you thought of it, someone else should as well... and I do need to keep doing this at least until one of my kids strikes it rich!

Good post.
Now that is scary!

That is really scary to me No wonder that sm
these gals hire on places, begin to work and then can't get their pay.
That is scary...

How scary to have a dog like that...
as your neighbor.  If you have children, PLEASE keep close tabs on them...I just heard on the news a few weeks ago about a pit bull (I think...) snatching a baby out of her mother's arms and malling her head badly.  The baby survived, thankfully, but was very badly hurt. I agree with you, these dogs are inherently vicious, and no, it's not the dog's fault at all...it's the human's fault for training and breeding for fighting...how very sad for the OP..I am sorry...
What's scary is...
they are treating people.  How does the patient understand what he is saying (if they deem to say anything).  I know when I see one of these doctors I have a hard time when I'm not ill.  My husband is hard of hearing but can understand if clearly spoken to and he understands nothing and refused to go back to a GP we had.
I'm sorry, but its really scary to me that anyone
let alone a spouse, could just go back to sleep and post on a MESSAGE BOARD the next day, asking about a SWOLLEN HARD TONGUE!! You have got to be kidding me. And I presume you're an MT as well??? What is WRONG with you?? Goodness, the blunders never cease to amaze me.  GO TO THE HOSPITAL. And don't wait til it happens AGAIN - get him to the hospital NOW to have it checked out, diagnosed, and have yourselves armed with epi-pens, etc. A BENADRYL??? That's just insane.
Very scary
Makes me paranoid about every "normal" person I meet. I hate being that way, but when it comes to my kids I am happy to be labeled *over protective*
this is really scary -

Okay, is there any chance that anything in our medical records is going to be correct, either done overseas, dictated by someone who has little grip of the language, perhaps transcribed by someone with even less of a grip, maybe corrected, but in the money crunching, I doubt that, probably never read by the physician and now you are telling me that the doc himself is typing this info directly.  I frankly cannot imagine this.  I cannot imagine they would want to type it.  They can't keep on track half the time just reading. 


That's scary sm

I'm sure it happens - as Patti says - but personally I would have a very hard time putting something like that on a report I typed. It is the doctor's responsibility to review the report. If he/she chooses not to do that, that is also his/her responsibility. But if I type it on the report, that means I am aware that the doctor is not reviewing it, and I would be concerned that I could be drawn into a lawsuit if there was ever a problem with a report.


It's quite possible that would never happen, but it's also possible that Patti has just been lucky...............


Something Scary!
Let me tell you something very scary that happened to me! I posted a comment in support of one of the companies on the Jobs Board and the CEO wrote me back an e-mail to my personal e-mail address thanking me for my comments. I was shocked as heck! I thought our identities were protected here. Guess again. They tracked me down to my personal e-mail address. Be very, very cautious of anything yo post here.
Now that's scary
I just envision a scenario where a doctor dictates a dose wrong, we type it wrong, QA doesn't change it for this reason, newbie nurse reads it and gives it to the patient. Dennis Quaid's kids got the wrong dose. Kid here in Central Florida recently got wrong dose because pharmacist typed it wrong. But as MTs we aren't liable? Very scary.
SCARY
Wow that med thing is scary to hear about. I thought it was bad enough when my FORMER PCP tried to tell me hypertriglyceridemia was from eating too much animal protein. That was so dumb it was funny but med errors aren't.

A Walgreen's here is in trouble because they wrote a script for a 3-month-old, premature twin for cough medicine and typed 1/4 teaspoonful instead of 1/4 mL. Granted not a doctor but it was in the news recently and the kid could have died if the pharmacy didn't catch it and call the parents prior to the second dose being given. What is it medical mistakes are the 4th leading cause of death in America?
No kidding...that's just scary nm

Pretty scary. Do you actually think you
are Frank?
Danged scary if you ask me!!!!!!!
 (gramps at 100 target practicing)
pretty scary
I know that this does happen.  I just try not to think about it.  It's amazing how many physician's and other big tim professionals are functioning alcoholics and drug addicts. Even more sad is the fact that other hospital staff know that these people are enebriated and don't dare say anything to anyone about it. 
is it scary though? or just gross?

Scary movies
Creature From The Black Lagoon.

The original Phantom of the Opera with Lon Chaney.
new people are scary
I have an orientation this Saturday with an animal shelter, i'm debating whether or not to show.  My main thing is the distance, afraid my car won't make it.  I can't wait to see some new faces though.  Make the call, you'll be glad.  They're all good people if they are volunteering their time.
Man, I can't tell if this is scary, or laughable.
