Many different options here. What tends to work best in my experience is asking the client to prioritize features and user stories accordingly, assuming you’re in an agile project

I like them half the time. they are emotional and moods will swing based on pressure their feeling from internal politics. Sometimes, they're completely reasonable and I'm able to explain calmly - nbd. Then, other times they're name calling that my team and I are being difficult bc we (politely) push back that they're asking for a lot of additional effort

I work with a classroom of Middle School ED students. One student, who I worked with the year before, has changed alot over the year. Last year (pre COVID), she had a good head on her shoulders and I thought I had good rapor with her. But over that period of isolation, she tried to commit suicide.

All year, she was much more withdrawn and ALWAYS on her phone! At the end of the I was 'beat up by her - she really knocked my glasses off.

How should I approach her in the upcoming year?
