00:00:00.000 She said, nobody fights harder than a mom. Really? Nobody? Nobody fights harder than a mother.
00:00:06.980 Let me get this straight. Soldiers at war don't fight harder than a mother. Elon Musk,
00:00:15.600 the presidents. Okay. Whatever. Whatever. Okay. Caroline Leavitt takes a picture with her baby
00:00:25.000 at work. Now, this woman is supposed to be conservative. So why isn't she at home taking
00:00:30.520 care of her kid? This is a feminist thing to do. All right. So now this is erupted Twitter.
00:00:41.540 Erupted.
00:00:42.060 She's bringing her baby to work. And all the conservative simps in the comments,
00:00:57.940 the best press secretary ever. No, I don't really think so. Like, I don't think the best
00:01:03.220 press secretary ever is bringing her kid to work.
00:01:06.980 Now, this guy, wait. So it's okay for her to bring her kid to work, but the lady in Congress
00:01:13.820 can't. So she's doing what average day-to-day stay-at-home mom or work-from-home moms do.
00:01:21.720 So you want a cookie. The poor kiddo will never receive mom's full attention. There are downstream
00:01:27.980 consequences to this. Notice all the Christian nationalists are suddenly silent about this
00:01:35.220 woman working and raising a family. And, you know, then we got Michaela Peterson. Now, remember,
00:01:42.700 Michaela Peterson was looking for someone to raise her kid on Instagram. So we got this young
00:01:48.940 woman criticizing this. Obviously, here we go. Caroline Leavitt, it's undeniable that you're
00:01:55.340 doing a fantastic job as White House press secretary, but I think you should quit. There's nothing
00:01:59.480 conservative about leaving your baby at home while you work a highly intensive, important,
00:02:03.560 time-consuming role. Going back to work when your baby is four days old is a form of neglect. Babies,
00:02:09.860 especially newborns, need their mothers. And the conservative movement needs to stop pushing this
00:02:14.460 rebranded version of feminist ideology that says that women can do both because they can't. Being a
00:02:20.200 mother, especially a mother to newborns, is a full-time job. Everything in life comes with sacrifices
00:02:25.220 and trade-offs, especially being a parent. What America needs right now is more present mothers.
00:02:29.480 We have enough girl bosses already. Okay. So now Michaela Peterson
00:02:37.260 says her kid is going to think, my mom is awesome. If she can be press secretary, imagine what I could
00:02:47.620 do. This is pure jealousy. So let me, let me just think about this. I want to think about this argument
00:02:52.980 here. The kid who's four days old is going to think, wow, I'm so happy my mom's a press secretary. Okay.
00:03:05.300 Or the kid that's, let's say it makes it to five years and now the kid's going to say my mom's awesome.
00:03:11.800 At five, they're going to understand what's going on. Like kids don't care. Kids don't. Okay. Let me,
00:03:24.840 let me continue. All right. Now we got a woman bringing her baby to a college class.
00:03:31.340 Also guys hit the like button. A like is free. So
00:03:39.140 Lincoln university professor goes viral for holding a student's baby during class.
00:03:47.940 The story of how a Lincoln university college professor ended up holding a baby during class
00:03:52.960 was life-changing for a 21 year old student who is finally able to take notes. I've always wanted to
00:03:58.420 go to an HBCU. So I decided what's better than the first. So I chose Lincoln said Imani Lamar,
00:04:05.300 who is now a senior at the Pennsylvania university. Two years ago, she was taking class with Dr.
00:04:11.460 Aquil Dix in the health sciences department. She had just come back from school after taking a
00:04:16.800 semester off for giving birth to her son prematurely. Lamar's son had to spend months in the
00:04:23.240 neonatal intensive care unit. It was really hard every day going to the hospital, seeing him and not
00:04:28.360 being able to help him was really, really hard. Christopher Murray, who Lamar had named for
00:04:34.960 the father had become her world and her schedule revolved around his. When she told Dick she had
00:04:41.940 to miss class because she couldn't find a babysitter, her answer was no, no, no. He told me. And I was
00:04:46.660 looking at him like, no, I can't miss class. I don't have anyone to watch my baby. I'm not going to
00:04:51.400 have one of my students miss class because they have no one to watch their child. That's just not an
00:04:55.500 option for me, said Dix. Instead, he told her to bring her son to school. That's my character. I
00:05:00.940 don't mind helping students whenever they need me. Lamar had reservations about bringing her baby to
00:05:05.340 class. How would he react? Would he be distraction to other students? Would he be able to focus?
00:05:10.340 So when Dix was started lecturing, something changed for Lamar. She realized she could do this.
00:05:15.620 I never thought it would come to that. To have somebody who's there for me really cares. It meant a lot.
00:05:20.500 Lamar is now a few months away from graduating and she has two of her favorite guys, her mentor and now
00:05:26.840 healthy-year-old son to thank. You have no idea how much this meant to me.
00:05:32.740 Oh, here we go. Let's watch the full video.
00:05:37.340 ABC News this month to bring you stories showing America strong, which highlight the strength and
00:05:42.660 resilience of people throughout our nation. Tonight, we want to introduce you to a local college
00:05:47.420 professor who's doing more than teaching health sciences. He's also imparting life lessons and
00:05:53.420 showing how it truly takes a village. Action News community journalist, Becca Hendrickson, has his
00:05:58.700 story. The story of how this college professor ended up holding a baby was life-changing for the 21-year-old
00:06:07.060 student who was finally able to take notes. I always wanted to go to HBCU, so I decided
00:06:12.260 it was better than the first, so I chose.
00:06:16.580 Who got her pregnant? Sorry.
00:06:19.200 Sorry.
00:06:20.740 Which one of you put wood or wooden in the chat?
00:06:23.940 Now 23-year-old Imani Lamar had just come back to school after taking a semester off for her child,
00:06:30.260 who was born premature and spent months in the NICU.
00:06:33.380 It was really hard every day going to the hospital and seeing him, not being able to help him, and it was hard.
00:06:40.360 Little Christopher Murphy, named for Imani's late father, became her world. Her schedule revolved around his.
00:06:47.180 So when she told Dr. Akil Dick she had to miss class because she couldn't find a babysitter.
00:06:51.780 No. He told me no. And I just was looking at him like, no, I can't miss class. I don't have nobody to watch my baby.
00:06:58.680 I'm not going to have one of my students miss class because they have no one to watch their child.
00:07:03.860 That's just not an option for me.
00:07:05.020 Dr. Dick said, bring the little guy in.
00:07:08.200 That's my character. You know, I don't mind helping my students wherever they need me.
00:07:12.080 Imani had reservations about bringing her baby to class. How would he react? Would he be a distraction to other students?
00:07:19.720 Jet Village says, my situationship partner said she doesn't like me listening to your channel.
00:07:25.340 Yeah, because you know what? She's never going to get into the relationship. What's her red flag? Let me know, Jet Village. Let me know. Let me. What's the problem here?
00:07:36.960 Be able to focus. But when Dr. Dick started lecturing, something changed for Imani. She realized she could do this.
00:07:43.860 I never thought that it would ever come to that. And to have somebody who's there for me, who really cares and generally wants me to finish and finish strong, it meant a lot.
00:07:54.600 Imani is now a few months from graduating.
00:07:56.960 Exactly.
00:07:57.440 And she has two of her favorite guys, her mentor and her now two-year-old healthy son to thank.
00:08:03.660 You really don't understand how much this meant to me.
00:08:05.900 At Lincoln University.
00:08:07.260 I think he's going to smash.
