It is tradition that right after the oath of office for every American elect President, his family reside with him to the White House. Not in the case of Melania Trump as confirmed by President-elect Donal Trump.

This is Melania Trump's final decision that she and her son Barron will stay in their New York Trump Tower. The reason behind this is with his son's private education in Manhattan, posted in Huffington Post.

From one of the staff of the Trump Transition team, it says "Melania is extremely close to Barron, and they have become closer during the campaign." It is the mother's concern that the campaign the family went through has been difficult for the child and little interruption of his studies will help.

Come ends June will be the family's decision if they will be moving on with Donald Trump in Washington DC. As of writing, there is no finality or even the slightest clue if they will live in the White House like any other first family.

NBC News also reported that Barron intends to live in the White House. For the future First Lady, she plays a protruding role in every administration. Since the election, the first family has avoided the spotlight.

As President-elect Donald Trump focuses on his new job as President of the country, the adult Trump children will be taking over their business. It is now known that this will be a future conflict of interest because governing and running a business will constitute jeopardy steps.

The family of an elected president that will live in the White House are already considered a member of the first family. During George Bush administration, two of her fraternal twin granddaughter did not live in the White House for almost the same reason as Barron Trump.
