My Questions & Answers

• Do you think pay for women and working mothers is improving?

  Maybe. I think it may be improving a little, but I think we still have a long way to go.

• Do you think it's OK for parents to bring kids to work?

  Yes. In an emergency or for a fun learning experience it's fine, as long as the employer is OK with it and the kids don't interfere.

• What was your favorite Olympic moment?

  Skating after her mom's tragic death, Canadian figure skater Joannie Rochette wins the bronze.

  I don't think it should even be a question. Women return to work all the time. Hers might be more physical than some, but think about the women that have to be back at work within 6 weeks!

• Martha or Meredith: Whose apple pie would you try?

  Meredith's pie wins, hands down.
