Do the President's kids really get to play in the Oval Office?

Answer 1

It depends on the President, his wife and the age of the kids. Many of us remember the pictures of caroline-kennedy-schlossbergand john-f-kennedy-jrromping in the office and hiding under their father's desk. theodore-rooseveltchildren were said to have fairly liberal use of the White House rooms, but it was not always to the president's liking. Once, after his daughter, alice-roosevelt-longworth, interrupted a White House meeting, Roosevelt was reported to have said, "I can be President of the United States, or I can control Alice. I cannot possibly do both." Former First Daughter chelsea-clintonwas twelve years old when she moved into the White House with her parents, bill-clintonand hillary-rodham-clinton. The Clintons made strict rules about media access to their daughter; the world saw a poised and accomplished young woman who was less likely to interrupt a meeting in the oval-office. Chelsea, who turns 30 today, recently announced her engagement to Marc Mezvinsky, the son of two politicians, edward-mezvinskyand marjorie-margolies-mezvinsky.
