Hey,

I am self-employed and have my own cloud app.

I currently work only 3 days a week and am there for my daughter two days.

—— That sounds sad and I hope you are feeling better today. I have had different experiences so far. My wife knows my condition and we are happy so far. I had directly taken time for my child. That was important to me.

I also program. But I am more often theoretically on the road. This fits quite well to pass the time when the child is sleeping. Reading is easier than programming :)

10 years ago I would have agreed with you. I was employed and not happy with the situation. Being self-employed has helped me.

I am also self-taught as I don't do well in schools and universities.

I will remember to spend enough time with my family. Thank you.
