Why Elon Musk Walked Away From the Boardroom to Share an Intimate Moment With His Youngest Child

“You could tell this wasn’t a scheduled photo-op,” said one bystander.
“He looked like any other dad, completely lost in the moment.”

“He realized he was missing key moments,” one friend revealed.
“It hit him hard. He wanted to recalibrate — to not just change the world, but to be there for his world.”

“He remembers birthdays. He builds Lego spaceships with them.
He wants them to know he’s not just a mind — he’s their dad.”

“You can’t be CEO of multiple companies and not sacrifice something.”
“I’ve made mistakes… especially as a father.”

“He told us: ‘I want them to remember my face, not just my legacy,’” said one longtime colleague.
“That says everything.”
