While fans initially gushed that Karoline Leavitt was “living the American dream,” there could be some downsides to her bringing her child to work.

The 27-year-old mom-of-one, who made history by becoming the youngest-ever White House press secretary, took to Instagram on Wednesday to share that she had taken her baby boy, Nicholas, eight months, with her to attend the first-ever MAHA Commission Meeting. The commission’s purpose is to advise President Donald Trump on how to address chronic disease and low life expectancy in the United States.

The first meeting, held in Washington on Tuesday afternoon, was attended by parents who discussed the importance of promoting a healthy lifestyle and food choices for children—and one of these proud parents was Karoline.

Karoline shared a sweet snap of her holding her little one, whom she shares with Nicholas Riccio, 59, while listening to the speakers.

“Yesterday, I was proud to bring my son with me to the first ever MAHA Commission Meeting at the White House with @robertfkennedyjr and many moms (and dads!) who are leading the nationwide movement to Make America Healthy Again,” the 27-year-old began in the caption.

“Secretary Kennedy has already met with leading packaged food companies about removing food dyes from their products, directed the FDA to reform their standards, announced an intention to ensure the US leads the world in production of healthy baby formula, and vowed to provide nutritious foods to lower-income children through the SNAP Program.”

She concluded: “As Americans, a healthy future for our kids should be something we can all agree upon! Thanks to President Trump, the MAHA Movement is turning into ACTION!”

Fans flooded the comment section with plenty of positive messages, but educator and future workplace training expert and commentator Jody Findley has warned about the negative effects this move could have on other parents.

Speaking on behalf of MINDSETA, Jody pointed out: “Karoline Leavitt bringing her son to work does not reflect the reality for many working parents.

“While her image of being a ‘powerhouse’ mom with a demanding career might seem inspiring, it will also create unrealistic expectations,” she added.

Jody continued: “Many parents, especially those in non-political roles, can’t easily balance work and children, and most workplaces don’t accommodate bringing kids into the office.

“It’s important for political figures to share a more balanced reality acknowledging both the highs and lows of juggling family and a political career.
