I don't have much positive examples, but I suppose we can learn from mistakes.
Alright, here goes ...
You just created a new human. This human to a certain degree takes precedence now. Plan accordingly, don't move every 2 years, give her a chance to grow with her environment. (I can explain this is detail if needed.)
If your kids cries, it's probably not because it's an evil manipulator. It does not need to be told to be tough.
If your kid consistently gets sick when she has to go to school, don't just send her anyway, check if there's a reason.
Be curious! When she says or does something you don't understand, ask. Be open about the answer and don't judge what you hear.
Be on her side. If you're taking a different position, explain the why and how.
Clean up together, involve her, be a part of it! Show her that men have a part to play in household stuff, teach her that it can be fun to live in a tidy, clean, beautiful space.
Your child is not part of fights with your wife. If you want to go to Hawaii and your wife wants Canada, your kid will not be the one to decide.
Don't make jokes about or be ironic with a kid. A 14 year old is still a kid, a 16yo is still a kid. Kids are very vulnerable and you're teaching them, that they can't trust you with stuff. Particularly when it comes to love/gender/sex/periods, just don't act like it's funny.
Do not comment body shape, not hers, not others, not in general. You have a type? Good for you, but that isn't for your daughter to know or consider. If you like petite dark haired women but your daughter is tall and blonde, she will understand this as her not being pretty enough. No matter how pretty she is or if your wife is just as tall and blonde. Sentences like "All xy-women eventually turn into square shape, it's just how that demographic works" are shitty without you telling this to your kid.
She likes a boy band? Great, you can drive her to the gig and pick her up later!
She reads teenager magazines because she's a teenager, maybe you want to hear her opinion on this stuff. She certainly doesn't need any condescending attitude though.
Maybe sometimes children need to be humbled, but many times life will do that on its own. Consider your own vulnerabilities, before putting them in their place. What they said may sound arrogant, but still be true for their situation.
Whatever she wants to do or create: Be supportive! She does not need to be a child genius and you don't need to tell her, that she's not Picasso.
"There will only be boys there, are you sure that's what you want to do?" is not in your vocabulary.
When she picks a study subject, maybe don't point out that this may be too hard for her. Help her prepare instead!
You can do this!
My list is very long, but ultimately simple:
If you lean into your own vulnerabilities and share this with her, a lot of these things will happen on their own. Be open and curious.
You can't teach her everything, she'll have to fall on her face by herself. Be there to pick her up afterwards and just keep that up.
I'm an introvert who works with people, I could be a recluse all year and I'd be happy. Without work maybe I'd be a little lonely at times, but there is ways to fix that for me, without relying on neighbours.
You seem to like having neighbours though, so that's very different. If that is something that worked well for you in the past, I think that's an indicator for the more expensive house. It's a permanent thing, after all, and if you're rather extroverted or at least need humans around on occasion, then you shouldn't make yourself unhappy by buying cheap.
You should ask this, but maybe hold back on the "I abhor it" stuff.
While for some places it may even be a good sign you want Linux, serious rejection for other platforms may look like a lack of flexibility. Who's to say you don't have the same strong feelings about other stuff?
You learn French, they learn English, you meet in the middle. I think that's probably how that was meant to work. Sounds fair to me.
You seem to lack the ability to change perspective here: You learn a language and so do they. You just seem to be missing the fact that the other side is doing the exact same thing?
I never knew there was this much drama about the French language in Canada. Really interesting fact on its own.
Bumble friend search, you don't have to look romantically. Meetup works too, though not quite as well for me, since not everyone with a common interest wants a new close friend.
We're out there and depending on where you are there's quite a lot of us in your shoes and many also don't really know how to go about this business.
Agreed, started with a Pixel 3 refurb. Just don't thik this applies to Samsung too. Pixel just doesn't have the bloatware stuff and that really does get in the way with other phones when it gets older. For my partner it's similar experience with refurbished Apple phones though.
