Can Women Have It All? Read This Interview!
350 Old Country Road, Suite 205, Garden City, NY 11530
877-791-8076 / StoberLaw.com
The following article was originally published in the Atlantic
magazine. The article discussed balancing a career and motherhood and drew
nearly a million views online and sparked a tremendous debate about the role of
women in the work force.
The article is titled “Why Women Still Can’t Have It All” and was
written by Anne-Marie Slaughter. In the following interview, Judy Woodruff
talks to Princeton Professor Anne-Marie Slaughter about the topic. Click HERE
to view the original article on PBS.ORG.
Anne-Marie
Slaughter, to you first. What do you mean by having it all?
ANNE-MARIE
SLAUGHTER, Princeton
University: I mean that women should be able to have the same choices as men.
I
think I regret that that's the way the issue has always been formulated when I
was coming of age. I think, today, it sounds very entitled because there are so
many Americans who have very, very little. But really what it means is that
women should be able to have the same choices about being able to have a family
and being able to have a career that men do.
JUDY
WOODRUFF: And you write
that for the longest time you believed that that was the case, but now you
don't. Why not?
ANNE-MARIE
SLAUGHTER: Well, no, I
still do believe that women can have it all.
But I now understand that my ability to have it all, which I have always been
able to have, was a function of how flexible my job is as a tenured professor.
I have had a lot of flexibility about when I work. I work incredibly hard. I
certainly put in the same kinds of hours that anybody else does at a very high
level. But I have flexibility.
And
the minute I got myself into a job that is the kind of job that the vast, vast
majority of working women have, where I was on somebody else's schedule and
really had a boss, a boss I adore, Hillary Clinton, but I realized I couldn't
make it work with my family.
And
that's when I really decided that it's time to have another round of
conversation and make another round of changes that will allow both women,
working mothers and fully engaged fathers to have better choices.
JUDY
WOODRUFF: And just
quickly, what are one or two of those changes that you think must be made?
ANNE-MARIE
SLAUGHTER: Well, the
simplest changes are around allowing more flexibility in the workplace,
allowing women to be able to, say, work one day from home, and again working
fathers as well. I mean, given technology, that's really quite possible.
Changes
that, for instance, value the results out rather than hours in, and changes that
say, you know, working until midnight, being in the office -- this isn't about
working, but the culture of face time in the office and the culture of what I
call time macho, you know, the person who is there until midnight in the office
must be the person who is working the hardest, those are culture changes that
we can make if we just think about them differently.

How Are Social Media and Divorce Linked?

It seems as if Facebook is the root to many divorces around the
world! Justices are now beginning to get wise and using evidence on Facebook
during divorce hearings.
According to a survey done last year, more than a third of divorce filings in the UK contained the word “Facebook”. Another survey done in the
United States reported that 80% of divorce attorneys said they’ve seen the
number of cases using social networking on the rise.
A divorce attorney Connecticut also added that out of the 15 cases
he handles per year that computer history, texts and emails are used as
evidence, 60% exclusively involve Facebook!

Australian Swimmers Banned From Using Social Media During London Olympics
Two Australian swimmers will be unable to use Social Media
during this summer’s Olympics in London. The two swimmers, Nick D’Arcy and
Kenrick Monk angered Australia’s Olympic Committee (AOC) after posting photos
of themselves with guns on their social media accounts earlier last week.
The AOC believes that the actions of the two swimmers were
foolish and they were advised to take the photos down immediately. D’Arcy and
Monk also agreed to returning home to Australia immediately after the games
finish in London which begins next month.
It appears that this is strike two for swimmer D’Arcy. D’Arcy
assaulted Australian triple Commonwealth games gold medalist Simon Cowley and
this resulted in him being kicked off of the Beijing Olympic team in 2008.
The AOC believes that social media will serve as a
distraction for the two swimmers during the London games. AOC believes that
during the games, the swimmers focus should be on swimming and competing.

It is that time of year again, hurricane season! National Hurricane Preparedness Week will run this year from May 27th through
June 2nd. The actual start date for the 2012 Atlantic hurricane
season is June 1st.
Nassau County Executive Edward Mangano is advising all Long Island
residents to have a “Go Kit” ready and available in case of any emergency. Because
of the Long Islands location to the Atlantic Ocean, the island is left susceptible
to the possible destruction that can be left by a hurricane. Mangano reports
that it is extremely important to have a plan for your family. Don’t take any
chances!
Here are some possible ideas for your family and pets “Go Kit”:
Kits should be
kept by front doors in duffel bag and include enough supplies for everyone in
the household for five (5) days, including:

- Battery-powered flashlight and radio (or crank radio), extra batteries and a 12-hour glow stick.
- A change of clothes, plus rain wear, sturdy shoes and protective gloves for everyone.
- Personal items, eyeglasses and personal care items.
- Important documents in a waterproof container: drivers’ licenses, wills, birth/marriage certificates, insurance policies, deed or lease papers, recent tax returns, credit card and bank account numbers, Social Security cards, Passport and Home inventory list
- Make sure you have special items for infants, elderly persons, pets or loved ones with special needs.
Many people consider
their pets family members, too. Make sure your pets are taken care of with a
Pet Go Kit, which should include:
- Your pets’ names, address and phone number
- Your name, address, phone and cell number
- Emergency contact - friend or family
- Your veterinarian’s name and contact info
- Important Documents
- Medical records : Medications : Specific Care instructions : Behavioral problems First aid kit / medications
- Current photos
- Sturdy leash, collar or harness, muzzles
- Paper towels for clean-up
