Don't let it get you down. We all make mistakes.
If you make a mistake because you believe in the basic goodness of people, then the person at fault is not you, but the other person.
I used to feel the same way - that all people were basically good, had good intentions toward others, and would respond to kindness with kindness. I, too, learned the hard way.
It took me a long time, but I finally realized that not everybody has my best interests at heart, so I have learned to be a little cautious. Everyone is innocent until proven guilty - but I let the jury deliberate a little longer these days. 
I make mistakes, my children have but
I pay for my own mistakes and my children when they were children, not as adults. I do not take on the responsibility of people who knowingly a) have children and not be financially responsible for taking care of them, b) do drugs and/or alcohol and want handouts?? This falls into a category of you do it to yourself, you take care of it yourself. I would helpp the sick and elderly, animals, people who have misfortunate not of their own doing. That is how I live my life. I read things in the paper, if I feel something I should give money to I do but not in a situation where you have the brains to do right if you WANT to do right.
I can't believe you just wrote it's not okay for your kids to make mistakes.
"Just becuase UGU all forget things and make mistakes does not mean that my children need to be raised to think it's ok to do so."
Good god, I hope I never meet you or anyone else with your twisted sense of right and wrong.
It does shake you up a bit especially when we take great care not to make mistakes
But we are human and we do make them from time to time. I believe that is why the doctors read before signing. I've made mistakes in my career, nothing that would change the care a patient is to receive, but working in this field for 8 years I can't say that I have never made a mistake. And you are right. It does shake you up a bit and only natural to start doubting yourself. About 5 years ago while working in a hospital I had made a mistake the doctor was upset about they were nothing major that changed the treatment a patient got, but still was upsetting. I talked with a co-worker and she said overall the work is excellent, we all make mistakes from time to time and you just try better not to make the same mistakes.
Luckily my current clients have never sent back a report, but I just say take it as it is. It's a mistake and you're human and we all make mistakes from time to time. Don't let it get you down too much.
She is an animal. She does not "think" or feel like us.

I see these mistakes all the time
I think especially with doing VR my eyes are so trained to catch any and all misspelled words. I find them on the news from our television channels, in the paper, on advertising, everywhere, Craigs List especially- these people cannot spell now. I saw Chester drawers on Craigs- sometimes just knowing they are so wrong I send email asking them - do you mean Chester drawers or chest of drawers?? Drives me bananas!! I saw misspelled word in high-end ad for a furrier and newspaper ad for a cleaner- in the groceries I see mistakes.
You are right, everyone makes mistakes
but like you said they are held to a higher degree of accountability.
If you have every worked in a hospital, in any capacity, even as an MT, you know that there is a system of checks balances for everything from dietary and housekeeping to OR employees. There is a reason why these systems including HIPAA, OSHA, and JHACO are in place. Sadly, there are always those few doctors (thank goodness for the nurses' who commonly save their rears such as in this case) who think they are above "policy and procedure." This might be a simple case of someone needing to be reminded that they are not above any protocol and they can make serious mistakes very easily.
let it out, maybe they can learn from your mistakes

Don't feel bad. Everyone makes mistakes.
The doctor should not have made you feel bad, nor should have your husband. Especially your husband because I'm sure he knows how bad you feel. My husband has said things like "you're home all day, why can't you..." whatever the point is. Infuriating! As if we're not really doing anything while we are at home.
Don't beat yourself up about it. Your son will get over it, and then he will be immune. Just do what you can to make him feel better (it sounds like you already are). You're not a bad mom! Hugs also!
4 weddings, don't you learn by your mistakes. 1 is more than enough.
Nope, did not learn from mistakes
but I sure got it right this time, married 7 years and love the ground this guy walks on. Am glad I kept on because you know something, I have found the love of my life and if I had stopped (which thought I would do after the last person died) I would have never known such happiness and bliss.
whoops, excuse those mistakes in there sm
I'm in a hurry
Not as bad as offshore, IMO. Point mistakes to off-
x
I don’t care how you live your life, just don’t want to pay for your mistakes
I think I have made my point.
Can you talk to facility and find out if mistakes
x
that is too cute!!!! but as long as people will fix VR mistakes, it will continue on the roll it is
;
At that rate, I could make in a week what I make

Dad said: You can learn from your own mistakes, but it's easier to learn from

I would make a good Beth with wig on. Not sure DH would make a good Dog.
xx
That just does not make me think more of you. You are still sm
still coming off as a spoiled woman and not deserving of her time, money, or affections. Lady, you are one spoiled woman.
Anyone know what something I can make up
husband wants another (we already have 3). I'm secretly taking the pill and he wants to know why I am not getting pregnant.
I was thinking of making up something like "I cant have kids anymore because of something" ..... anyone know what "something" I can make up?
can't make
My chicken soup tastes like dishwater.
Well I know who all 3 are, so what does that make me?
x
Now that I think of it my DH did make up some - sm
tapes; used to DJ parties long ago; so he did the music (his contribution other than showing up!)-- and we "snapped" up the china, not stamped it up! Boy, too much sun on Saturday I guess! We did have a photographer too (that is in that $5K figure); did a very small "package" with a local studio; 2 hours of photographer time, got lucky though, got one of their better photographers who had hurt his foot so could not do big long weddings. He did a wonderful job and we had great pictures to remember the day by. (Plus my brother video taped it as well).
I don't think I would make them (sm)
They are voicing their objections loud and clear and for some reason. They must be very uncomfortable. I am a new grandma (3 years) and I don't get real involved but try to keep my GD busy and I think I would know if she was downright miserable which sounds like what your kids are. I would question the kids at an approprite time - separately and then together and then see what their responses are - tell them you will not get mad and you can keep their secret but you are concerned and would like to know. Then if a time ever comes up with your MIL and it is appropriate - drop a hint or two.
How do you make these?
I have read all the posts about these cute blankets. How do you make them ? They sound pretty easy.
Do you make your own? - sm
I make breakfast taquitos to stick in the freezer for quick breakfasts if the kids are running late, which is almost every day.
One kid hates cheese and likes the corn tortillas so I make bacon and scrambled eggs with a little onion powder, roll them up and make them stick with a teensy bit of cheese (she has never noticed it there) then freeze them.
The other kid like the flour tortillas so I do the same thing but add shredded cheese. Stick them in the freezer in gallon size freezer bags.
I can make 30 of each kind in about 20 minutes and that's 30 days worth of last minute breakfasts or after school snacks.
I know - it's almost enough to make
you join a gym, if only I could afford it. It's not my company - I think they are above board and good people and all. But I've been doing this 19 years, and my brain keeps telling me that variety is what is needed for a brain, not cave dwelling, isolated work.
Not how much I make, how much I have.

Make-up
The makeup counters at Macy's, Boscov's, all the big stores offer a free makeup application and teaching, but be careful they'll try to sell you the store. At 13, I would say base if she has acne if not, none, and a little mascara and maybe a light lip gloss.
Tell her from many of us from them 70s and 80s, lots of makeup causes creases and wrinkles as much as the sun does.
13 stinks for everybody, but probably mom more than anyone. Good luck.
Yes, I am saying to make up even if you
think it is not your fault. That is what I am saying. That is what others are saying also. You can be stubborn and refuse, but it is the right thing to do. You can say it won't work, he won't listen, but you still need to try.
There is someone here saying they make
Maybe that's the company they were talking about in the magazine. You can make $28.00 an hour or more working for doctors. That is not a lie. A lot of these companies offer their own school to work as you go.
Just because every one does it, well that does not make it right
Daresay I go against the norm and not be politically correct and say there are consequences to every action?
So let me make sure I have this right...
because I am fortunate enough to have a husband who has a good job, a great work ethic and both of us have decided to live debt free and are happy that way, I am the bad person here? Wow, how catty and bitchy some women are. Just think, I could work for a lousy company making peanuts, work around the clock to make those peanuts, eat top ramen, never have anything new, never take a vacation and then come here and complain about my life, my job situation, etc. No thanks. Some of you need to take a step back and figure out why you are so unhappy for anyone who can manage to make ends meet in this day and age. None of you would turn it down. DH and I are a team, we work together to have a good life and there is nothing wrong with that. Sorry if that offends you; it works out well for us.
Maybe they should make
those with that addiction be totally immersed in it 24/7 for 30 days. If that doesn't cure them, I don't know what will! (Especally the close-ups!) Eeeww!
It can, but make sure it is thoroughly
thawed out before drinking. Parially thawed is nasty!!!!
Oh, come on, make our day ! sm
Just change the names to protect the innocent! Spice up our boring lives!
Love to hear some of those 18 wheeler stories. My cousin went along with her husband on a trip and said the "girls" would literally jump into the sleeping area of the truck. How interesting!
I would do the same. Why not make
Christmas nice for some other child? It would certainly show your child what the season is really about, kindness and generosity.
I make that, only I use
cream of chicken soup instead of cream of celery . . . we all love it.
Another good tuna meal is to mix the tuna up the way that you normally would (mayo, salt/pepper, etc.) and then add grated carrots and potato sticks. Not too good leftover, as the potato sticks become soggy, but it's great when they're added in right before serving (for leftover, you can just add some fresh potato sticks to liven it up again).
my mom used to make those...
I find them at Super Walmart on occasion and they taste almost the same
I would either make
a Pineapple Nut Cake -
Preheat oven to 300 degrees
Ingredients:
2 eggs
2 c. sugar
2 c. all purpose flour
2 tsp. baking soda
1 c. drained crushed pineapple
1 c. chopped pecans
1 tsp. vanilla
Beat eggs, sugar, and vanilla 'til sugar is dissolved. Add flour, baking soda, and pineapple. Add nuts and pour into greased/floured 13 X 9 pan. Bake at 300 degrees for 50-60 minutes. Cool completely before frosting.
Cream Cheese Frosting:
1 8-oz package cream cheese (softened)
1 stick butter (softened)
1-1/2 c. powdered sugar
1 tsp. vanilla
Combine all ingredients and mix well.
My other choice is Watergate Salad. Been a long time since I made it, but it is one of those pudding/marshmallow deals, using pistachio pudding, cool whip, crushed pineapple, marishino cherries, pecans . . . I can't remember if that is all, or the quantities, but has to sit in the fridge while the marshmallows "do their thing". I'm sure the recipe is easy to find on-line if you're interested in that one.
I also might just eat the pineapple by itself!
I normally DVR and just make sure I
don't hear anything and watch it the next day since I work nights.
You do not have to win AI to make it
big. Look at Daughtery and Kelli Pickler. They are both doing fine without winning.
yes! the boy is not able to make....
decisions for himself for now... the mom is so convinced that God will keep her boy safe... He won't... He wants people to take advantage of the advances in medicine that have been made... What, if your son is drowning, do you stand back and see if God hauls him out of the lake, or do you throw him a life saver? Why turn down the only proven therapy against cancer?
This is not the way to make an example from someone
I thought the punishment was supposed to fit the crime.
Can't make them safe.
A 14 year old I know was killed on his bike a few weeks ago. You can't make them live in a bubble. I will pay for my kids insurance and their cars. Of course they will have rules, although our state has plenty as it is for young drivers. I will teach them to be responsible drivers, walkers, bike riders, etc. Just because life can be hard, doesn't mean you have to make it be harder. I moved out of my parents house just before my 15th birthday and took care of myself. While it can be done, it doesn't always have to be.
Um...I am not the OP. I put my name on each post I make.
I was just offering an opinion. As far as I can tell, the OP has not responded to anything.
So....wrong person!
I don't make a budget.
Only have 3 children and a very small extended family to buy for. I doubt I spend over $600 between them all.
I make a mean Chex mix
When I had an on-site job, I used to bring it in for parties and it was a big hit and I once had a friend and that's all she wanted for X-mas was a batch of homemade Chex mix.
I use the original recipe as opposed to the newer, albeit healthier, one that's on the back of the box these days. In other words, tons of real butter and seasoned salt! I also like to use a mix of peatnuts and cashews and substitute either Cheez-Its or Goldfish crackers for the pretzels since real junk food afficianados don't like pretzels anyway.
I wish I could figure out a way to make a living at junk food because I think I'm pretty good at creating it.
Make sure to introduce your dog to the pup first and see how they
of doggie friend, your dog may not be ready to accept another friend. Tread carefully on this and good luck.
I make these every Christmas
They are big and soft. There is no sour cream, but the butter really makes these tasty.
1/2 C butter
1 C sugar
1 egg
1/2 tsp salt
2 tsp baking powder
2 C flour
6 tsp milk
1/2 tsp vanilla
Cream butter and sugar - add eg and dry ingredients. Add milk and vanilla. (You might need a little more milk in order to be able to roll out the dough). Chill several hours or overnight. Roll out and cut with cookie cutters. Bake on greased cookie sheet at 400 degrees for 8-10 minutes. Decorate as desired.
Yummy!
