My 9 year old has a friend Barley. Americans are creating names, boys names for girls, color names for boys and girls, brand names for babies, nature names.
I guarantee it wasn’t tense for Elon. And I bet it was glorious seeing how his 2 year old son was way more mature than the software engineers in the meeting.
Hes showing his kid what parasites and leeches look like.
> Elon may have kept the child around during testy meetings as a subtle prompt for his employees to approach him in a civil manner.
I’ve seen that before, it’s a common tactic. In fact my daughter and her pre-school friends went to more than one board meeting or high stakes luncheon. It was always adorable to watch them play board meeting with the beanie babies on the piano bench at home. Though sometimes they would get a little screechy about who was going to be Chairman...
IIRC one of our friends held a luncheon for Zhu Rongji( then premier of China) with the little girls joining (right out of a half-day of school in their Catholic school uniforms); my friend said he was known for being a little sharp. The first time he sounded a little angry my daughter sharply turned her attention to him and politely and firmly asked him to use his “inside voice” as there were children present; when my friend repeated my daughter’s instruction to him in Mandarin he laughed and complimented my daughter on her sense of propriety, and toned it down.
Imagine that. The woman ages just like the rest of us.
She and her brother are best remembered in the Oval Office
hiding under the desk. Would suggest they would have been
roughly the same age then as Elon’s son at present. JFK took
office in 1961. Caroline born in 1957; John John born 1960.
:)
Or ‘Horse Piss’ if they’re Miller drinkers!
Sometimes the tactic works. It can also be done with kittens and puppies.
Othertimes, some people may refuse to “play emotional PattyCake” and they will remain unrestrained in their manner.
He likely trained his son to respond if he heard the word “poo poo head” with the rejoinder “No, you’re a poo poo head!”
Maybe the two year old is in his “no” phase. Very useful for Musk when dealing with the Twitter snowflakes.
Silly man, money and plastic surgery can make you look like anything.
Wait until the "after" pics come out like with the cat woman. 
Hahahaha...I didn’t think of that, but yeah, that would work! I like it!
The boy was thinking, like Yoda, “Mine, all mine”!!!
And....?
So what, Yahoo?
