Good for her. I can see both sides in regards to wanting to cut costs yet in this case, seems that depriving special needs children of what is familiar and routine makes their world feel uprooted. Bloomberg is on a tear with his bizarre regulations and cuts as of late. I question his sanity.Nantzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04624564423039747891noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6015532373102571249.post-21103365204727384252013-01-26T08:14:37.390-05:002013-01-26T08:14:37.390-05:00Anonymous you guys need to be numbered--its like w...Anonymous you guys need to be numbered--its like watching a person argue with themself. I think its great that as the spouse of a celebrity that Carin feels strongly enough to come out for a cause that not only afftects her family but the families of over 150,000 students. It takes a lot to put one's privacy as well as your family's privacy in the forefront. As for having her child out in public--the best thing for a kid is to keep them away from other kids. Kids are basically germ factories. And JoJo I just read a statistic that only 11% of Americans are in Unions, the lowest point--since, I can't remember the rest of the statistic.vikeauhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06321740972783469809noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6015532373102571249.post-46642185533678474152013-01-19T10:57:20.959-05:002013-01-19T10:57:20.959-05:00Hopefully employers are being supportive of the fa...Hopefully employers are being supportive of the fact that parents will be about two hours late to work every day.

I'm sure she is capable of taking care of her son. Perhaps he's had a vaccination but honestly, it's no one's business. If you read the article, it points out that many will be inconvenienced as a result of the strike and having a daily routine changed so maybe that's what's happened here.

It certainly is an important cause and I am glad she is directing her energy into supporting it. With that being said, it does not mean however I would want my toddler surrounded by hundreds of people, camera men, reporters etc. No one said she was a bad parent. If she were, she would not be involved in the cause to begin with.

Maybe she was taking him to the doctor after,maybe someone else was picking him up,maybe they had a birthday party to go to... When you live in NYC (an I do) there is always an epidemic of some sort, there are 12 million people here. It's been nice out the past week, maybe he was tired of being cooped up in the house.

Though they have the power, no matter how many years you worked and did a wonderful job, to put you on "FURLOUGH" instead of your promised holiday vacation for a week or two without your salary.<br />You can then meet with the labor board and that will be the end of your job.<br /><br />Without the UNION's presence,the doors will be locked-as they were in 1911 at the TRIANGLE SHIRTWAIST FACTORY,because there was no one policing the obvious: THE LOCKED DOORS which caused 146 employees to be burnt to death.<br /><br />Now because of that vicious business practice, someone is policing the safety of the working person. THE DOORS REMAIN OPEN because there are safety rules which were made when the unions<br />were born. The unions may not be perfect, but they are there to protect powh...there is certainly something available in their profit margin for their<br />employees to pay the rent.....most workers live from paycheck to paycheck no matter how hard they work to maintain their jobs.<br />erless POOR. Management is their to protect their profits..<br /><br />Workers are being "furloughed" now since the recession....do the matmarian kaplanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05941741462471263725noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6015532373102571249.post-60670018908748786842013-01-17T10:54:39.873-05:002013-01-17T10:54:39.873-05:00Glad Carin's taken up the fight.

I understand the need for them of course...I used to belong to IBEW & Russell was a Teamster. But I'm sick of them penalizing the public, storming off in a snit if you will, because they don't get everything they want.JoJohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18165375435543044068noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6015532373102571249.post-34611163514663146872013-01-17T09:23:10.788-05:002013-01-17T09:23:10.788-05:00thank you for shielding Luka.thank you for shielding Luka.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
