  • I feel for you, man. Thank you for sharing. Hopefully you feel a little better after letting it out.

    Are you seeing someone about your anxiety? That seems like the primary issue. My spouse is a stay-at-home parent while I work full time and I still have all the responsibilities on your list. It’s often stressful, but that’s being a parent. If it’s pushing you into anxiety attacks then you definitely need to address that first.

    You’ll also have to be clear on your limits. If she wants you to organize playdates and you don’t have any time left then make it clear they won’t get organized. There are only so many hours in a day.


  • If it’s just piano then it’s basically Muzak. The bus itself may even be playing some imperceptibly which you can harmonize with.

    I’ve tried headphones with babies before and it’s hit or miss. One would howl instantly if you put them on him while another loved them.

    Seems like you found the least intrusive way to keep your kid calm, which I think most people will appreciate.











  • I’d believe it’s real. In 2016 I was at a company trying to migrate off an old IBM mainframe and green screens. It wasn’t like an airline with complex or critical code; it was just a barely functional ERP for a warehouse. Source control was the furthest thing from their minds. Some companies and IT departments are very reluctant to change, regardless of how much time and money it save.
