    Keep in mind that nursing is a four year bachelor’s degree. There are other options, but the four year degree is most common in the US. That means many nurses chose their profession when they were just out of high school. Nursing being a stable, well paid, and highly in demand career is something that everyone hears about. Blaming nurses for taking that to heart and pursuing it as a career is questionable at best.

      I know plenty of older nurses that have just gotten their degrees, but yeah, 18 year olds are dumb and making that huge of a decision that young is prolly a bad idea
