RN = 4+ years of school, LPN = 6-8 months maybe? How was she lying about it? She said she was a licensed nurse, which she is. Don't most RNs refer to themselves as "registered nurses" or "RNs," not "licensed nurses"? Abbie could have been technically specific and stated she was a "licensed practical nurse," but she wasn't wrong to say she was a licensed nurse, and I would wager those in the profession would have understood her. I don't think it's wrong to be proud of her accomplishment, especially in this group, where the most a female ever achieves (as I've said before) is growing their hair down to their ass. There's nothing wrong with being an LPN. Edited March 19, 2019 by graefin 48 Link to comment

Her mother was explaining that every pregnancy after Kendra has been very difficult because she had a car accident while pregnant with Kendra. There’s been at least 5 pregnancies since Kendra! The woman appeared to be in serious pain, but I guess God just wants her to keep birthing those babies for Christ. She's going to keep getting pregnant until menopause. I suspect Michelle started going through menopause shortly after miscarrying Jubilee. We all know JB and Michelle were still trying to reach that elusive #20. Kelly Bates had at least one miscarriage after Jeb. The more pain the more worthy you are to God or some nonsense I don't know. These people don't think logically or rationally. 6 Link to comment

I wonder if she is ignoring her Dr's advice. They're an awkward family, aren't they? Not quite as bad as the Swansons, but still strange enough where you get the vibe "fun" is a foreign concept. The whole "we're special because we wear our modesty like a badge of honor" is so played out. Maybe Fundies are too busy averting their eyes to notice, but gasp! not every woman wears a string bikini to the beach. Swim skirts and tank tops are common, especially if you're going to be doing activities where you don't want your cash and prizes falling out.

RN 4yrs Bachelors degree. The LPN program in N.J. is 12 mon. but it’s become obsolete because many hospitals are not hiring them. The hospitals are also insisting that all nurses have BSN degrees. Our neighbor who is an RN from a 3 yr. hospital program and has worked at her hospital for 25 yrs. was required to get her BSN.. She took it on line at age 57. . There is also the option of a 2 yr. associates degree given at the community colleges.These programs are paired up with local hospitals. At the end of the 2 yrs. if you pass your boards you are an RN. My grandson’s friend is in that program now. He plans to get his BSN on line after the 2 yrs. So, essentially it’s a total of 4 yrs, but after 2, he can work as an RN while pursuing his BSN degree. It’s a lot cheaper that way. I am old, and a product of a 3 yr. hospital based program as well. They worked us hard, but I got tons of hands on experience, and felt confident right from the beginning. I think the problem with Abbie working, is the fact that she, in the course of her job may see something ( Nike ) offensive to her fundie eyes, like some poor male’s bare behind or worse. That would not go well with the Duggars. 2 2 Link to comment

3 is enough March 19, 2019 Share March 19, 2019 Just to add to the nursing discussion, you can get an RN degree from a community college in 2 years ( Associate Degree in Nursing or ADN) or go to university for 4 years and get a Bachelor of Nursing degree or BSN. And, of course, there are schools that offer ADN to BSN programs. 1 4 Link to comment

Yeah, you can still be an RN without being a BSN. The RN used to be looked at more as a terminal degree, but I gather that more places are now suggesting that people get a BSN instead. Or to add the BSN to their RN, which is what your friend was doing apparently. But you can definitely work with an RN only. And I think you can get an MSN on top of an RN, too, without picking up a BSN along the way. There are a lot more specialties now than there ever were, and a lot more very specific technical requirements in many of them, so I suppose that at least partly explains why there are so many different levels and kinds of degrees out there today.

floridamom March 20, 2019 Share March 20, 2019 Who was the lady at the Vuolo dining table sitting between Jinger and Grandma Vuolo? She had grayish hair was was a bit older? They should have at least introduced Jeremy's cousin, was her name Ann also? Is she a part of the heathen Catholic side of Jeremy's family? Are his grandparents Catholic still? These are some things I'd like to know about. I agree that Jinger pronounces Felicity's name a bit strange exaggerating the "t". This episode was all over the place time-wise. Summer at the beach, Thanksgiving in NJ. Just a mish mash of random things. We did NOT need Jessa at all; why do they stick her in episodes that she has nothing to do with. My opinion is that at this time, the Seewalds are the most boring and bring nothing to the TV table. Drop them and stick with the NJ and PA Vuolos instead. 11 Link to comment

sleepysuzy March 20, 2019 Share March 20, 2019 I'm from Appalachia, and it is common for families to call a large plot of land a farm, even if it is not being used for agriculture. It would be like saying homestead or family estate. Regarding LPNs, where I live they are often employed in long-term care facilities and by home health agencies, along with CNAs. Abby could work per diem providing respite/substituting for full-time nurses if she wanted to keep her license but only work when it is convenient for the show. When my daughter had private duty nurses, they were LPNs or CNAs, and staffing two shifts a day M-F and night shifts only on the weekend could be a nightmare. In rural areas, it's even harder to adequately staff an agency. Abby could probably have her pick of hours and assignments. I knew some nurses who only worked one weekend a month. 2 7 Link to comment
sATL March 20, 2019 Share March 20, 2019 (edited) I wonder how much Abbie has to work (I guess it would be per license period - what ever that is) to keep her AR license current. IF John want to keep doing mission trips and if the work overseas count, that would be a way of getting a big nbr of hours in over a short period of time. I can see the point of mission trip hours for not counting, though. To bad her specialty isn't pediatrics or maternity. She would get hours in just being "there" around family almost every day. I guess LTC /home health / hospice facilities isn't part of their family-religious-belief system. On the premise that : (1) out of a boatload of children someone is going to be able to provide full time care when/if the time comes and (2) the family multiply so quickly (ie 20 yrs of age to be come a parent) , it could be the grandkids or even great-grands could be assisting with the care--- 20 yrs a parent, 40 yrs a grand parent, 60 yrs to a great-grand, 80 great-great-grand .... people are now living longer..

Are the nursing pins (given out at the completion ceremony) out of style now too ? Nursing schools each have a distinctive cap that their graduates wear at various school ceremonies, like the one where they get their nursing pins which are also unique to the school. Back in the day, when a nurse got a job, she wore her cap and pin with her uniform. It was sort of a point of pride and a way to identify fellow grads. When I was in high school, I babysat for kids whose mother was an ICU nurse at Cleveland Clinic (big time rep even then). She had to wear a white nursing dress, white hose and shoes along with her cap and pin while working. Needless to say, her uniforms got pretty messy over the course of a shift. I remember her washing her nurse' cap in the kitchen sink and then soaking it with liquid starch and 'sticking' it to the door of her fridge so it would dry flat. When she was ready for work, she's grab it and fold it into shape as she walked out the door. It is quite likely that Abby can maintain her nursing license even if she doesn't work for the next few years. Most nursing boards allow a nurse to get an inactive status license if they're taking time off to raise kids, etc. Licensure intervals vary from state to state but it is usually several years long. If she got an Arkansas license now, she could get active status since she has so recently been working. Once she doesn't work within the timeframe that the license covers, she can ask for inactive status which is granted automatically presuming she is in good standing. Most states require that inactive nurses participate in a certain number of educational hours which could mean attending conferences or doing online courses, etc. It's pretty simple to get the required hours at minimal to no cost. Then, if she decides to return to work, she asks to go onto active status and, if she shows she's done the courses, she is all set. She does have to work a certain number of hours as an LPN over the next licensure period to stay active. Doing stuff like caring for family or even mission trips would not count for a license because 1. she would have to be employed and 2. someone would have to provide monitoring and oversight of her work to certify that she was meeting the standards. 11 5 Link to comment

I was shocked when Kendra said her mother was 28 weeks along. How freakin' big would she be if she made it to 40 weeks? I know her mother is a small woman, but man. The absolute saddest thing to me about her mother continuing to have children is that, were she to go into premature labour, odds are it would be the child that would suffer severe consequences and not her. And I guess that goes with their "everything is in the hands of God" thing, but if I knew that any subsequent pregnancies meant I could go into preterm labour I would think long and hard before getting pregnant again. Which isn't to say I wouldn't choose to try to have another child or two, but I'm pretty sure I wouldn't go on to try to have 7 more children. And I definitely would want to make sure I was doing everything in my power to NOT go into premature labour. Which would probably mean staying fairly close to home and my doctor and the hospital with with my doctor was affiliated, so that if anything went wrong my medical history was easy accessible. Has she had the baby? I can't keep track of what is old footage or recent footage. Maybe she was pregnant with twins? (In which case, given her history, she definitely shouldn't have made the trek to Florida.) 7 Link to comment

This picture is from early December. Kendra's dad is on the far left with the baby and her other little brother is on the right (red vest) holding Garrett. Link to comment

Aaaaand Anna may look different because she is on trend with the heavy brows. I hope they HAD to move because they can’t even afford the $55,000 house and are JB tenants.
