What's with these crazy sluts? It's like the only reason they had children is so they'd have an excuse to whip out their boob in public.

Just cause one breast feeds, doesn't mean she is a slut....it's a beautiful thing between a mother and child. My husband had me to do for our child and she and I share a special bond b/c of it. I believe that if one breast feeds, then they should pump the milk for outtings or use formula or breast feed in a private place.

She will win. You can breastfeed anywhere. I was a breastfeeding mom for 4 1/2 years. If my kid was hungry, they got fed. I wasn't going to feed them in some nasty bathroom. :nono:

That is totally inappropriate to ask a mother to feed her child in a restroom. NOONE in their right mind eats while sitting on the toilet. GROSS. And breasfeeding CAN be done very discreetly (though we don't know if that was the case). People need to get a grip, that's what breasts are for for crying out loud. Noone seems to blink when they see women on the beach more than half naked, but when a *gasp* nipple gets flashed for a split second all humanity goes out the door.

People people people. Put your torches and pitchforks away.

I nursed both of my kids, and sometimes in public as well. However, I did it discretely so that the folks around me weren't treated to a show. If this woman was enough of an exhibitionist that the manager had to come over, I question her motives and sense of appropriateness.

Seriously, you nursing Mommies - how many times did someone complain about you feeding your child in public? I never had one single person say a word to me because they weren't aware I was doing it.

This is one of those subjects there is no winner at. You are wrong no matter which side you come down on. However breast feeding is best done in private.

I would say "discretely", not necessarily in private.

I mean, you create children and pee with your weener - nothing more natural than that, but I don't want to see it, either.

Fixed....:lmao:

No. Breastfeeding is best done when the child is hungry. It is one of the most natural things in the world.

No one feeds children with their weener.
