I totally understand the not being able to find childcare thing. I know that if I'm ever called to jury duty, it will be pretty difficult for me to find childcare. And at this point, I would have to bring along my one month old as she is exclusively breastfed. I feel really badly for that mom.
ReplyDeleteMaybe if the courts are going to demand that full-time parents be jururs, then they need to provide daycare at the courthouse.
think the anonymous definitely needs to be deleted.
ReplyDeleteslb- agreed. I hate spam.
ReplyDeletejust another mommmy- If you called in or something and told them that you are exclusively breastfeeding your infant and cannot be separated from your baby, I wonder how the reaction would be?
The article even said that the judge wasn't of authority to do what he tried to do. Sounds like another a-hole trying to leverage power he doesn't have.
at the courthouse in my city, there is a daycare for moms and dads who don't have childcare.
ReplyDeleteI don't know about Michigan but here in Texas if you are the sole care provider for children under school age like a sahm or sahd you are automatically exempt from jury duty. You just have to send back a card they send you stating that or call the clerks office.
