    Cynthia,
    I loved reading your perspective on the two research strategies, qualitative research does tend to dig deeper leaning on, ideas and real-life situations. This research approach all though more hands on does lack credibility due to the lack of numerical data. On the other hand, quantitative research does provide that and focuses on the numbers and measurable data. Very well explained thank you for explaining this contrast.

    Fatuma,
    The way you explained this is very clear. This explanation clearly shows the contrast between the two quantitative and qualitative. Quantitative research does show more data-based face-face and nonverbal indicators by providing charts and graphs. Where in contrast qualitative research leans more on words or labels.

    Cynthia,
    I agree with you that if research does not serve a meaningful purpose children should not be involved. Children are young but with that they do still have rights and respecting that is the most ethical thing to do. The guardian in the situation should be advocating for the child and doing what is best for the child always.

    Kristen,
    I can completely understand you having this outlook being a mother, it shows how protective you’re also understand that children’s consent is so important. I completely agree with you that the child’s best interest and emotional well-being should always be considered first. having informed consent and combining research with medically necessary procedures is definitely the best way to make informed consent.

    Kristen, I completely agree with you on the “information overload” sometimes it almost seems, you have to dig to find the right information because everyone has a point a view these days. It can be hard with that to find credible sources as well. With that being said the accessibility that the internet brings is unmatched. Living in the information age definitely has its perks when it comes to researching quickly and efficiently.

    Hi Swami,
    I completely agree with your perspective, the internet is definitely a blessing because of all the information that is available. I do think the distractions that the internet brings is something that must be dealt with on a personal level, you must have self-control. Finding a good balance, I think is the most important, using the internet as a creative and information tool is the most important. I myself am definitely guilty of getting distracted but it is a process.

    Hi Kristen,
    you bring up a good point about not wanting to confuse patients. I agree with you that clear accurate communication makes a huge difference in patient’s outcomes and can postpone recovery due to lack of education surrounding post care. When patients don’t completely understand, it can lead to mistake in care and even anxiety about care. Being mindful of what we say and how it is being received is so important.

    Thank you for sharing, Beatriz I agree with you that avoiding wordiness in the nursing field does help avoid medical errors especially with healthcare being so fast pasted. Clear communication does provide space for less confusion for both the patient and the care team. The number one goal is always maintaining patient safety for patience, so I loved your perspective.

    hi Fatuma,
    I understand your perspective on this given your religious beliefs; I also can understand how that can make you feel negatively towards it. I think your point about how artificial wombs and synthetic embryos can create ethical dilemmas. I do agree also that we cannot predict the long-term results of this, it is important that science stay ethical. Thank you for sharing your post definitely made me look at this in a different way.

    Hi Cynthia,
    I think you bring up very valid points on this subject, preventing serious genetic diseases that might be hereditary on both parent’s side is definitely something that can help future generations in families. Allowing families who want babies the opportunity to have a healthy baby is an incredible advantage in modern medicine. The concerns you bring up when it comes to creating a “perfect child” is a valid concern because it questions what the motive behind the baby is. Many children in the foster system that need a home, unfortunately do get overlooked because of these modifiable reproductive technologies. The important factors when family planning should be having a stable home & loving environment for the child regardless of how the child might present, thank you for sharing your perspective.

    Hi Kristin,
    I can absolutely relate to what you said, I like both of those writing styles they are a great mix of logic and creativity. Also researching to back up your argument is always very interesting and a great way to learn more on the subject for sure! Thanks for sharing.

    Hi Beatriz,
    Thank you for sharing your preferred writing style, I can resonate with enjoying argumentative writing style because it can help you understand a person’s stance on specific topics which I find gives you a different perspective on the topic overall. I also agree with you that it is true that targeting a specific audience can be a result of your stance on the subject.

    Hi Cynthia, thank you for sharing a bit about your upbringing. I really admire your parent’s determination and commitment and how it influenced your values. It is also inspiring how you were able to connect all of these life lessons of faith, perseverance to your own life. I also agree with you that cultural differences play a big role in how we communicate especially in a healthcare setting. Faith and family support can definitely shape how people view care and also communicate.
