Sasha Obama, the president’s younger daughter, was not in attendance during Mr. Obama’s final speech while in office. With no explanation about her absence, Twitter exploded with questions about why Sasha was not there.
Though many pointed out it is a school night for the 15-year-old, some had other theories as to where she might be.

Only 18-year-old Malia traveled to Chicago for her father’s speech, and it is still unclear as to where Sasha was.
Mr. Obama said during the speech that both daughters “wore the burden of years in the spotlight so easily.”
