People who have children this way often place too much importance on genes while ignoring the environment. Itโs like, โThis is what our family is going to look like. Weโre going to pick a kid, and this is how weโre going to put it together. Momโs going to be in charge of the whole thing.โ Itโs like a project or building a company. People donโt always realize they are creating a human being and not a piece of furniture.
In Silicon Valley, there are many distant parentsโusually fathersโwho hardly know their children. Sometimes the mom and child donโt bond, either. There are a lot of men who are extremely successful and want things a certain way. They tend to get what they want and donโt hear โnoโ a lot. So when their kid shows up and isnโt the way that they want, what happens?
Usually, itโs a disaster.
