>>11922049I've got plenty of textbooks. In fact I'll post them in a few mins just to flex lmao.
Jokes aside, I've read most of the textbooks I have. I'd rather read some short papers, it's more time effective imo.
>>11922054Not in US, no idea.
>>11922081I'm bald, 183cm but somehow I'm doing great with kids. In the beginning I thought it was going to be really hard but looks like it wasn't hard at all.
Kids from 4-10 are fine to deal with in a childish manner, like "Wow, that's a nice toy, do you like superman, etc" but from 12-18 when puberty starts to kick in, treat them like adults, it's really easy but they lie, so everything they say, you take with a grain of salt because they might be embarrassed.
For example, when I was on peds rotation, I had a 14 year old girl that complained of lumbar pain, Giordano was positive, but it ended up all being made up by her because she needed attention. Her parents were working in another country and she was staying with her grandparents, that's why it's very important to ask about relatives, relationship with the family, etc.
In the end, just don't try too hard and always smile to kids. My prof was a little old man in his 50s, the good old classic grandad figure, super kind and understanding but very strict on children's behaviour. (He's a pediatrician that specializes in Diabetes and metabolic disorders and every single morning, he'd go into the diabetic ward and make the kids open up the drawers of their nightstands and check for sweets and such). As I said, don't sweat it and be postive.
>>11922112Imo, it's based. I like his long videos and I recently watched the nutmeg intoxication one which I found really interesting and had no idea that it would cause hallucinations in big doses.
