Take Our Daughters and Sons to Work Day
It's the Take Our Daughters and Sons to Work Day today. It's that time when we can show our children our work lives thus, giving them an idea of how their future could be; and maybe, make them realize the value of education.

And today, I saw them all over. Dads or Moms in their suits, holding hands with their pre-teen Daughters or sons as they head for work.

In the World Wide Web, people had various forms of participation during this day:

  • journalseditor exposed Joanne's Pretty, Pretty Princess sweatshop as 2 girls work side-by-side with mom.

  • As Mrs. Anderson, an 8th grade teacher, encourages her students to participate and even gives them an assignment to further help them learn more about the workplace.

  • However, over at ohoolihan's office, April 27th is a business as usual day and the 'no children in the workplace' policy is in effect.



I was actually surprised and glad that a lot do take the time and interest to participate. Due to the sheer number of students present, the atmosphere in my office building made me feel like I was back in school.
