I don't mean to unnecessarily gender this discussion. Gender here doesn't matter. But I'm going to use gendered words as they fit the context. I want everyone's opinion.

My dad died from bronchial cancer two days before my 12th birthday. I had to learn how to be a 'man' from my ill mother.

What I want to know is, if you had to import some wisdom to preteen me, about the fundamentals of life, what would it be?

I've barely learned to shave (and prefer a beard anyway). What can you teach me Hexbear?

I'm 32 by the way. I'm just curious.

    I was complaining about stuff happening at my first job and he said "If you explain something at work, make sure it's understandable to toddlers and management". Stuck with me, because 9/10 of your chance your boss is an idiot, even if he do means well - sort of a symptom of how things are run.

        I'm in management, and the best problems come with proposed solutions so I can just say yes.

        I mean even then you need your boss to understand as to why it's a problem and why it's a solution
