I really wish I could attend @AssocChildLife conference this year but there is just no way I can afford a $550 registration fee and $189/night hotel for 5 nights. It’s really just not feasible and it’s so unfortunate.

The student fee is $49 but I don’t qualify because I am certified, even though I am a full-time student. I could probably make it work if it was only $49
I just submitted a manuscript from my masters thesis for publication and I am nerrrrvvvvyyyy

I've seen some criticism of this work lately, with concerns that small or inconclusive findings may get overhyped. Twitter isn't the greatest place for scientific nuance, but I want to offer two reasons why I think this study warrants all the attention it's getting and more.🧵
I've been waiting with bated breath for findings from this once-in-a-generation study. This is really exciting evidence that direct cash support to families can affect infants' developing brain activity in measurable ways. Good policy builds brains! 🧠

I’ve read 15 non-academic books (like for fun) since AUGUST!! That is insane when you’re also a full time PhD student and it’s literally all because my kindle paper white makes it just SO. EASY. to read

I just cited myself for the first time in a class paper and it was truly a great feeling lol

We all work at different paces. Some of us like to spread things out and others like to get it done all at once. You do you bestie!
Comparison truly is the thief of joy. I was so so worried about submitting an outline for a class peer review bc a lot of my cohort had pretty solid drafts, but the ones I got to review were outlines also and all I’m saying is you’re doing great even if you don’t think you are!

Going into child life research is so fun bc there’s so many gaps in the literature to contribute to, but it’s so daunting bc THERES SO MANY GAPS IN THE LITERATURE TO CONTRIBUTE TO
Starting to feel more competent and less idiotic in my responses in my classes lol

Question: "Dr. Patton, what is the alternative to hitting children?' Answer: "Don't hit children." Next question, please.

Y’all: A FAMILY DROVE SIX HOURS (!) to see me in clinic. They waited WEEKS for an appointment. Why? They wanted a 2nd opinion… from a Black Pediatric Nephrologist. “We searched for you, Dr Ray.” I’ve never been more honored. #RepresentationMatters #BlackMenInMedicine

Walking around #UGA before and after lecturing today got me thinking. I’ve been to many college campuses for sports and/or teaching purposes. And while a little biased, I’ve yet to come across one as gorgeous as the @universityofga! #BeautifulPlace

I’m presenting a webinar on incorporating facility dogs into child life practice next Friday for @seaclp! I’m stoked
