Excellent question!

I agree with you 100% about all of this.

Thanks for writing about it.

The sad thing is that I wrote a similar essay about the hostility I was often met with when I nursed in public -- 32 years ago!

Including a rant about why my baby shouldn't have to eat in a public bathroom.

That baby is now 33 and has babies of his own!

It sure doesn't seem as if things have changed for the better.

(The essay appeared in my local women's newspaper, and was reprinted 12 times, including in an anthology about breastfeeding called HAVE MILK WILL TRAVEL which I bet you'd enjoy)

Anyway thanks again for writing this and keeping the good fight going.
