I work as an engineer in corporate IT. I would like to move into management in the next 2-3 years. Any tips?
my friend recently found out that her father has been cheating on her mother and he told her that it was her choice whether to expose him or not, but that if she did she would destroy their family. Can you please share your perspective on this? She has decided to keep the secret.
How much condemnation should we have towards children who commit acts of evil? In one extreme this would look like the two 10 year old boys who kidnapped a 2 year old toddler before torturing and murdering him. Or children who engage in school shootings as teenagers/young adults. In less extreme cases, how angry can we be towards children who model the same manipulative behaviours as their parents.
My teenage son feels he has trouble making meaningful friendships. I see that he has a variety of friends and is well liked but he wants that ride or die best friend and wants his friendships to be more reciprocal overall. I do notice a change in culture from my teenage years when I had a very busy social life even though I wasn’t “cool”. I wonder if it’s kids on devices and not hanging out irl that’s the issue. Do you have any idea what I could tell him to help him?
My son is currently 7 months old and my work-life balance is great since I'm able to work from home often and my wife is a wonderful mom who gives him lots of love and attention while I work. When he gets a little older, how do I explain to him that I can't play while I'm working without breaking his heart?
My family says that I've been distant, which is true. They seem to be quite clueless, they have been pushing me away for years. At least to my point of view. My mother is hard to talk to, and when I do she's accusatory. If I haven't contacted her for maybe a week she sends me a message asking if I'm angry. When her message sounds angry. She also calls angry sometimes. It's quite frustrating because I simply don't want to engage. My mother and sister have both just disappointed me greatly. When they visit they seem to only come with depressing stories about child abuse. When I have told them in the past about my belief of child abuse that happened to me as a toddler and they shut me down. My mother also thinks I should hit my children for compliance. Am I looking too much into it? It might be my trauma.
What makes a person mature early? Will teaching philosophy to kids makes them mature faster?
Stefan, I'm interested in your views on ADHD, especially how factors like childhood experiences and giftedness could influence its diagnosis and symptoms. With regard to using psychostimulant drugs like Adderall or Ritalin, would you equate this to your comparison of using morphine to treat a toothache, in the sense that it might relieve symptoms without addressing the root cause? Finally, for your viewers diagnosed with ADHD who are seeking a more holistic approach, what recommendations would you have? Including , how would you advise people to deal with deeply ingrained unrelenting standards from their childhood now that they are in adulthood ?
Hello, Stefan. I heard you mention in a very old podcast from around 2013 that you and your wife try to avoid eating meat (especially red meat), but that you let your daughter eat a normal diet. Is this still true, and if so, could you perhaps expand upon the reasoning behind this decision? Also, what is your opinion on the standard American diet? Should parents be shamed for not educating themselves about nutrition when they are responsible for the metabolic health of a child? I ask because it seems like the parents get a pass while it is the children who pay the price in terms of bullying for being overweight or sometimes even through severe damage to their health and wellbeing.
I've been asking women out and lately and always get the same strange answer. It's never the typical "sorry I'm not interested" or "no, I have a boyfriend." The new thing is "I'm not looking for anything right now" which seems like dangling hope or feigning disinterest to see if I'll continue pursuing. Am I wrong to assume this? The interactions are usually very amicable and I get good laughs out of them while flirting, some even telling me I'm very handsome without prompting, so why the hesitation? What's your perspective?
