The Inside Job

Audio: Sarah Palin and Working Mothers

Comment

Posted: September 16, 2008

Over the weekend, I spoke with Washington news station WTOP about Sarah Palin's hotly debated work-life balance and whether it's a useful or relevant discussion for the rest of the country's working mothers. You can listen to the segment here. It's also available on iTunes.

children in the work place

Some jobs may let you bring your newborn or young children to work with you, but what about people who have work in other fields companies do not have that. I have worked in a call center and hospital and doctors office. While some doctors office wil let you bring your children others won't. If they are sick you cannot bring them and you get penalize for taking off to take care of them. Some hospital have open up daycares on site which is a good thing concerning how their is a shortage of workers.
But a special need child will require more attention than the average child so she will have to have someone else to do her job and Todd cannot do it because he will be working in her place. So she actually will be VP in name only.

The real working mothers

Are not seeking public office.
They are working hard at home preparing the generation that is the future and that supports the office holders.

We wont live to see a women in office

You don't believe Hillary can do the job, and you don't believe Sarah can do the job...We are our worst enemies and so that is why society will not accept we can do the job.
