I would have to see the video footage before I could render an opinion...

Re: Public Breast Feeder

I think breastfeeding in public is fine and a woman should not have to cover up. How many of you eat with a blanket over your head? The child covers most of the breast anyway.

As for how to respond, "I think it's great that you're feeding your baby. We need to see more of it so it becomes normal and expected."

Re: Public Breast Feeder

I personally feel a little uncomfortable around nursing mothers. A couple of my daughters-in-law nursed and my one daughter nursed her fourth (and last) child. I just don't stare.

I don't think it is wrong or immoral. The problem is ours, not the mother's.

Sam, you better say something thoughtful and conservative after your previous remark!

Re: Public Breast Feeder

I realize this doesn't apply to anyone on here, but what really irks me is when someone thinks it's okay to wear a very skimpy bikini on the beach, but then thinks it's indecent for someone to feed her child.
