The primary thing that has caused a recent increase in divorces is women changing roles in the home. Years ago, men went out and earn the income to support the family. Women only stayed at home doing housework earning no money solely depending on their spouse paycheck. This cause most women to separate from their spouses. However, these circumstances entirely change in today world. The equal opportunity among men and women in roles are clear at the moment. Women now can work and earn money, while men can stay home doing household tasks such as cleaning, washing clothes, cooking and taking care of the children.

Baccalaureate nursing has proven better patient outcomes, than by those registered nurses licensed with an associate degree. Baccalaureate registered nurses earn a higher salary and have more opportunity for advancement; they are able to handle situations which require critical thinking skills and a more complex patient assignment. Pro’s and Con’s There are points in which an associate degree registered nurse will remain just that. The registered nurse role is extremely demanding. The idea of working 8-12 hours a day as a registered nurse in an emergency room is exhausting. When adding the responsibilities of being a mother or father (sometimes single parenting), along with spouse and household responsibilities, a person has much less personal time. Trying to add school and more student loans to that is not at all something that would make a person jump up and say, “Pick me”. Life becomes extremely...

...MAMA’S MESSAGE TITLE: FEW QUESTIONS TO ASK YOURSELF BEFORE YOU SAY “I DO” Welcome to Mama’s corner. In this edition we shall be looking at salient, important and vital question that must be asked before saying “I do”. Mark 10:6-8 (NIV) “At the beginning of creation God made them male and female. For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife and they two will become one flesh”. Question 1 Why am I getting married? After salvation, walking down the aisle is probably the most important decision you will ever make in your life time because who you marry alter your destiny positively or negatively. Secondly marriage has only one door which is the front door and no back door that is, if you are in, you must remain in. Ask yourself why you want to marry now, why you want to marry this particular person. Be sure that your motivation for marriage is not due to peer pressure, parental/societal pressure, competition or trying to prove a point, the feeling that marriage provides you with financial security. Be certain that your reason(s) for marriage are pure, realistic, purpose driven and the fulfillment of destiny. Question 2 Do you truly trust each other? To trust someone is to believe that they are honest and sincere and will not deliberately do anything to harm you. A wise man once said that “trust is a burden” in other words, when you say you trust someone you have given the person the assignment of delivering on his promise. It also means that you...
