Since When Has The Workplace Been A Nursery?
20 Answers
Ignore the breastfeeding, which is just showboating by these sort, my issue is with a baby being in a workplace.
Firstly it is not a fit place for a child. Secondly a work place is for work, how can you be concentrating on your job with a baby in your arms and certainly not breast feeding it.
Has all this right-on rubbish gone too far?
Seems this woman's husband has taken a year of work to look after the child so she can carry on her career. So why the heck is it in her workplace?

Yes it seems gone are the days when employers employed people and they just got on and did what they were paid to do.
I understand the need to accommodate (as far as is practical) people with disabilities in the workplace. However, there is no need for women to have children. They choose to do so. Having had a child they need to understand that life for them will never be quite the same again and there should be absolutely no need for employers to make accommodations for the welfare of their child. But I’m obviously out of line.

That is because it is right-on.
She is paid to be a politician. I'm sure if my wife had tried to type with one hand or take minutes with a kid in her hand she would have been told to get real.
This woman made the comment on sky that doing this made politician be in the rel world. Nothing can be further from the truth and shows how out of touch the political elite are.

How do you know nobody in Australia is concerned, Jack?
Just because the Australian Parliament passed rules to allow such grandstanding, that’s no reason to believe that everybody is happy with it. I most certainly would be concerned if the House of Commons was littered with breastfeeding women and their grizzling children whilst affairs of State were being discussed.
Mrs Waters said in November, "If we want more young women in Parliament, we must make the rules more family friendly to allow new mothers and new fathers to balance their parliamentary and parental duties."
I disagree. Children mean a lifestyle change. It seems this is something many mothers (and fathers) seem reluctant to accept. It is clearly inappropriate for a new mother to bring a two month old child into a workplace like a Parliament.

//women have always taken children and/or babies into work........in the fields.....in the factories.....//
they may have done so in the past, but the policies for vulnerable groups (including minors, ie those who have yet to reach compulsory school leaving age) that all companies are required to have by law would exclude all but the most transient of visits.
so no more filing your baby in the bottom drawer, as per the brittas empire.....

No workplace I've ever worked I has allowed children to be brought in.
Apart from the practicalities of not being able to do / concentrate on the job you are paid to do there is also the health and safety issues.
If one of my work mates wanted to bring their children in to see us even on their days off / maternity leave it was discouraged due to health & safety, not being insured etc.
