    @fancifranci I think it’s fine to pay the debt in another way, maybe not now but in the future you’ll have another chance to make it up to her about the free childcare. Maybe you’ll move there in a few years. If you take the sense of owing her out of the situation, what do you want to do? What’s in Texas for your career and your child, and…[Read more]
