On April 6th, 2020, New Zealand’s prime minister, Jacinda Ardern, took the stage at a press

If you think working remotely with your kids in tow is tough, can you imagine what it must be like to run a country while self-isolating with children? Well, it turns out that this is an actuality for many world leaders, as recently exemplified by Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.
