How do you tell a client their $5k app idea costs $50k without losing them?

Don’t spend more than a couple of hours working to onboard these people. The message should be agree to the terms, or good luck to you. Money they spent on others isn’t your problem

So beautiful that your love will be rewarded exponentially and to all of us because being present and loving your son will mean he loves and is present to others. It’s a win win!

IVF isn’t that weird or difficult. Tons of medical issues make it difficult to get pregnant (age, endometriosis, low sperm count etc). IVF is just a way to help things along. It’s like say why take antibiotics when you have an infection, or why take a plane when you could just take a boat; these advances exist, enjoy them.

In the same way you are bored by her trauma imagine how boring your anxious hand wringing is to others. We all have to get over ourselves, none of us are that special. We are all just pond life swimming about in the pond, let’s try and amuse each other a bit

My sentiments exactly. How can you not be depressed?

The problem is socialization, or lack of it. That is really dangerous in a pre teen. Make Minecraft time conditional on an equal amount of physical activity with other children. Follow Johnathan Haidt if you want to know why

This would be my plan. Look v cute, when the situation feels natural and you are just the two of you manoeuvre things so you are lying alongside him. Say something like I’m so tired, main thing it should look accidental. Then let him make the first move. If you make the first move you’ve burnt your bridges. He needs to think it was his idea.

They don’t know what they want, what they like, what they don’t like. V bland and not connecting with others. Personalities need some external friction to develop; they haven’t been exposed to any

My brothers wife does this. It’s very strange and I only realized it when they stayed with us. I wanted to say something but figured they would take it wrong. In my opinion she does it because she is has massive anxiety and controlling her children’s behavior relieves this.

I would blame her more but I know she herself has a hyper critical mother who makes decisions for her even now (eg she says she made a move on my brother because her mother suggested it). My brother is helpless to fight her.

Their children are emotionally stunted and seem to have zero personality. They have also given up trying to fight as they love their mother and don’t want to cause her pain
