child handling for the childless nurse

My current job has me working with children, which is kind of a weird shock after years in environments where a “young” patient is 40 years old.  Here’s my impressions so far:

Birth - 1 year: Essentially a small cute animal.  Handle accordingly; gently and affectionately, but relying heavily on the caregivers and with no real expectation of cooperation.

Age 1 - 2: Hates you.  Hates you so much.  You can smile, you can coo, you can attempt to soothe; they hate you anyway, because you’re a stranger and you’re scary and you’re touching them.  There’s no winning this so just get it over with as quickly and non-traumatically as possible.

Age 3 - 5: Nervous around medical things, but possible to soothe.  Easily upset, but also easily distracted from the thing that upset them.  Smartphone cartoons and “who wants a sticker?!!?!?” are key management techniques.

Age 6 - 10: Really cool, actually.  I did not realize kids were this cool.  Around this age they tend to be fairly outgoing, and super curious and eager to learn.  Absolutely do not babytalk; instead, flatter them with how grown-up they are, teach them some Fun Gross Medical Facts, and introduce potentially frightening experiences with “hey, you want to see something really cool?”

Age 11 - 14: Extremely variable.  Can be very childish or very mature, or rapidly switch from one mode to the other.  At this point you can almost treat them as an adult, just… a really sensitive and unpredictable adult.  Do not, under any circumstances, offer stickers.  (But they might grab one out of the bin anyway.)

Age 15 - 18: Basically an adult with severely limited life experience.  Treat as an adult who needs a little extra education with their care.  Keep parents out of the room as much as possible, unless the kid wants them there.  At this point you can go ahead and offer stickers again, because they’ll probably think it’s funny.  And they’ll want one.  Deep down, everyone wants a sticker.

are you excited for the homestuck epilogue? i have an inside scoop for you all.

if you pick candy this pops up.

but if you pick MEAT

All currently made humanstuck aus are weak; you compromise the beautiful gremlins known as the Homestuck cast in your works. You think Vriska and Terezi work in a coffee shop? A fucking coffee shop? Terezi and Vriska manipulate young children on stream to give them donations using their parents’ credit cards, you fool.

Incels and other sexist men can’t see a woman doing something incredible without fuming and trying to discredit her. They’re now dissing on Katie Bouman, who helped write one of the algorithms that got us the black hole picture, saying she was just an assistant (they don’t know what assistant professor is), and using Andrew Chael, her colleague in the Event Horizon Telescope team who helped write one of the codes, as ~the true person behind the codes who is being erased by this anti-men society~ or whatever. They’re even saying crap like “lmao women really don’t do shit”. Andrew took to Twitter himself to call bullshit on that.

If y'all can spread this thread to counter such narrative it’d be great.

This is a fandom gatekeeper free zone. I don’t care if you only watched the movies. I don’t care if you never read the companion novels. I don’t care if you never played the games.

Are you having fun? Legit. Let’s go. Canon is for giving us a meeting point, not for excluding people.

Cheers friends.

Homestucks after 4/13:

How many times do you think Amanda Grayson, wife of Sarek, said “Well, bless your heart” on Vulcan without anyone understanding what she really meant.

And one day, Spock says it, using it correctly, to someone who’s being a pain in the ass and Bones chokes on air?

I keep forgetting to post stuff on tumblr cause I’m not on it as much anymore but I thought some of you might be interested in these ^ 0 ^ Pre-order for these grima kicks end April 24th (yes I…am putting the actual date in this time unlike the last merch preorder I had when I was off BY A WHOLE MONTH) and each pair comes with a bonus sticker sheet hoho~

The Temple of Quechula was built in 1564 and abandoned in the 1700s because of a plague.

sometimes i think about the crew on starfleet ships that aren’t involved in the missions and how absolutely bananas shit must appear to them when they find out a couple of days later what’s been going on

starfleet janitor: we did what now

D&D monster concept

Non-newtonian slimes

Hitting them harder does less damage

Their AC is 13 and you have to roll below it to hit

especially effective against high-level players
