His name is Barron Trump, his father has just been inaugurated as the 45th president of the United States and he will be the first male child to live in the White House almost 60 years after the iconic snapshot of John F. Kennedy and his son in the Oval Office.

He is with his mother Melania, however, with whom he spends the most time. The first lady defined him in an interview on the Parenting.com portal as "a very strong, very special, intelligent boy." According to the former model, Barron is an "independent" person and he knows exactly what he wants. “Sometimes I call him little Donald. He is a mixture of us in the looks, but his personality is the reason why I call him little Donald ”, related Melania.
In September 2015, Donald and Melania assured People magazine that they had not needed the services of a babysitter to raise Barron. “I like to get involved. I think he is very important ”, declared the first lady.
Currently the youngest of the clan studies at the Columbia Grammar Preparatory School in Manhattan. At school, the appointment of Donald Trump as the new US president has raised doubts among some parents about the security measures and the inconveniences that it could cause the school. The presidential family, meanwhile, has already announced that Barron will finish the school year and will move to the White House with his parents.
While Donald Trump is known for making headlines every time he speaks, Barron has stolen some of the limelight from him on several occasions. Although not intentionally.

It has been difficult for Barron to assimilate that his father is, in addition to one of the richest men in the world, the president of the United States. According to a source close to the family to the New York Post, “the campaign has been difficult "For the youngest of the Trumps and his mother wants" to limit the disturbances to a minimum. So they made the decision to wait to move into the White House until Barron finished the course.
