White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt Brings Child to Work, Drawing Mixed Reactions
White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt has been making a statement by taking her child to work. She has done so on multiple occasions, sparking an online debate over whether it's appropriate.
The sight of a high-profile government official juggling the demands of work and motherhood has struck a chord with many Americans. While some view White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt's actions as a powerful example of work-life balance, others question whether her position affords her such flexibility considering other working parents.
In a recent photo, Leavitt is seen feeding her son a bottle of milk while keeping her eyes glued to a computer screen. The photo quickly went viral, with many believing she has special privileges that other moms around the country don't enjoy.
"I think it's great she gets to see her baby throughout the day while she's working. I wish that was every mom's situation," one netizen commented. "Must be nice to take your kid to work, or work from home. Too bad other moms aren't allowed to do this," another added.
Others praised Leavitt for being able to juggle her responsibilities as White House Press Secretary and as a mom to a toddler. "Total Rockstar! Thats how us working moms do it!! 🔥🔥" an admirer praised.
One mom shared that she's had a similar experience and commended Leavitt for the work she’s doing: "Been there. Done that. With twins! You go girl and everyone out there juggling, struggle and loving. Toughest job you will ever love."
This isn't the first time the White House Press Secretary has taken her son to work. She proudly posts their photos at work, once even showing her son in the Oval Office while reviewing photos with President Donald Trump.
She also brought him to a commission meeting on "Make America Healthy Again." He was seen sitting on her lap in the meeting attended by dozens of people.
