A nurse visits the 3-month-old of a single mother for a weight check. She finds two older children running around the home barefoot, the TV is on with the volume set on high, the infant is crying, the mother yelling at the two older children and a half-lit cigarette is in an ashtray. The mother tells the nurse the visit needs to be cut short today because she has to pick up her other two children from the bus stop.
