That is wild. Why would any nurse have that opinion?

There are legitimate concerns about over-use of medical interventions because of economic incentives to generate billings or the practice of defensive medicine to avoid potential liability.
But I don't know what the intent was of the blurb.

For sure but again I don't really get the nurse thinking we should let nature take its course

If you're a nurse who's been caring for anti-vaxxers non-stop for a while, I can understand why you might secretly harbor thoughts that maybe you should let nature take its course.  I would hope that they wouldn't act on those thoughts, however, or express them out loud.

I can tell you that back in the day, we definitely went out to play after school, in the same clothes we wore to school, and rarely, if ever, did homework.

There must have been some other hellish time when kids only did homework after school.

I believe that was written by someone from the von Trapp family, pre Julie Andrews.

She's working at a care facility for elderly alzheimer and dementia patients. She's been there for a couple of months now, which seems longer than many of her previous nursing engagements.

On the one hand, it's unsettling.  On the other hand, I think that such facilities in the US are already pretty good at facilitating the nature taking its course on a systemic level, so I'm not sure individual nurses can make much of a difference.

Today's society. Lower expectations.

[Valmy]

Back in the 80s and 90s I used to kind of believe the idea that society had degenerated since hey I wasn't there in the 30s, 40s, and 50s...but current old farts trying to convinve me how hard working and noble everybody was in the 70s and 80s makes me laugh. Um I was there...no we weren't. We were no less degenerates then as we are now.

I think it has a lot to do with economic insecurity.  Young people have to be a lot more conformist now - there is intense pressure on them to build a performance portfolio to get into good schools-get good jobs etc.  And then still live with their parents because housing prices are insane and out of reach.
