Ivanka Trump criticized for childcare advice during coronavirus crisisTEHRAN, Young Journalists Club(YJC)_The senior adviser to President Donald Trump has been working from home after she came into contact with Peter Dutton, Australian Home Affairs minister who tested positive a week later for Covid-19.

Ms. Trump, who is staying home after the government and Dr. Anthony Fauci - director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases - advised her to do so, tweeted Monday that “this is wise. #SocialDistancingWorks.”

On Tuesday, she shared a photo of herself and her children making a fort for the kids at home, suggesting other families in the photo’s caption that they should do the same.

The tweet was, however, slammed by users who felt she was not considering her financial advantages in comparison to many American families who are going through a tough time due to the coronavirus crisis and its financial burdens.​

One user tweeted, “Congratulations on being rich & being married to a guy actually profiting off this catastrophe.”

"There are actually people suffering. Without enough food. Without nannies or cooks or cleaning people to help with the kids. Who are forced to work or risk losing their job/business."
