The study itself doesn't say anything of the sort that the article title and this thread title do. I gaurantee you that if you polled any number of therapists what people's hangups are about it would be more likely to be the paren

I got 2 offers this year after taking a few years off. The offers weren't for as much as I'd been making when I left, but I'd expected a little bit of regression there. The front door is nearly useless because of so many AI t
