Teaching your teens about moderation

Published by Mary under parenting, teenagers

Up until a few years ago when parents worried about their kids drinking too much (or drinking at all) they were thinking about booze. Teens and alchohol is a known problem. But now there is a new problem. Teens and Energy Drinks. There used to be a handful of energy drinks on the shelves. Usually they can be found between the soda pops and the beer. So, their close proximatey to the beer and their labels that are 2/3rds warning make them super cool for teens.

My boys have a number of friends who like to stay at each others houses so that they can stay up late playing video games through the night drinking energy drinks. Then they crash.

So, now we don’t have to just warn them about the dangers of alchohol but also of the combo of caffeine, sugar and b vitamins. READ MORE HERE

Try this from home

Published by Nursing Scrub under ADS

I have been a nurse for 12 years and a mom for 10. I have 4 kids who take up a great deal of time between school, sports, etc. Several months ago my husband suggested that I try to set up an online business selling nursing scrubs. He made the suggestion because of the extensive contacts I have made over the years in the scrub industry. I have bought a lot of scrubs in my time.

I have recently started a business from home selling discount nursing scrubs online. I hope it takes off so I can continue to be a stay at home mom. Check out my site and let me know what you think.

Travel Nursing with Kids

Published by Nursing Scrub under ADS

I am a stay-at-home mom of 4 with most of our extended family living across the US from us. One day when I was trying to think of a way that my family could take an extended vacation and still continue to have some form of income, it dawned on me that I could become a traveling nurse. I have been a RN for 12 years, but been staying home with my kids off and on for the past two. My kids will be off from school in the summer for 3 months, and my husband could take the summer off from work and be a stay-at-home dad. What a great opportunity it will be for him to grow closer to the kids! I plan to contract with a traveling nurse agency to work three 12 hour shifts per week, for a 12 week assignment and make about $14K in one summer! I started a blog about this a few months ago. You can find it at: Travel Nurse Job
