But it isn't easy.

here's the fun thing.

For people who don't know, I run a company that that does that helps people get into college.

So it's test prep and college counseling and tutoring.

So I have an entire army of tutors, and I could have designated all the best tutors in my group.

You're going to help my daughter in physics, you're going to help my son in this, whatever.

I could have tutored them up to their ears, but I knew that's not the right thing to do.

I let them know if you want to talk.

With Kate to help with the paper.

If you want to talk with Aaron for some chemistry, let me know.

And they're happy and they're happy to help.

And so I'm being supportive, but did not, did not put in place for them help that they didn't want.

W we also we spent some time talking about a guy named Ron McGinn, who's his kind of guru on relationships and talks about how we make deposits kind of in a healthy relationship uh by by showing care and respect.

And I know a lot of parents will say, Well, I care enormously.
