This not a limitation on feeding infants Madam Mossfern Aug 2018 #179

Of course it was a mocking gesture, Codeine Aug 2018 #188

In my opinion Madam Mossfern Aug 2018 #197

Yes it is. You need to be covered, showing no breast, is a limitation uppityperson Aug 2018 #193

Not "need" Madam Mossfern Aug 2018 #195

You agree that breasts will embarrass her teenage son? Really? Do you think there are teens stevenleser Aug 2018 #125

That's not what I meant Madam Mossfern Aug 2018 #178

The consideration that needs to be shown is to the hungry baby. That's the #1 consideration. stevenleser Aug 2018 #189

She could have taken that receiving blanket Madam Mossfern Aug 2018 #208

Nope, she shouldn't have needed to do anything of the kind. Her comfort and the baby's is what stevenleser Aug 2018 #209

How would she be uncomfortable draping a receiving blanket over her shoulder? Madam Mossfern Aug 2018 #211

That's up to her and how she feels. It's not up to anyone else. nt stevenleser Aug 2018 #212

Honestly now Madam Mossfern Aug 2018 #213

That's my answer. The #1 consideration is the hungry baby and the mother speaks for the baby stevenleser Aug 2018 #214

... so she puts a blanket over her head Madam Mossfern Aug 2018 #216

Do you really think the blanket was on her head for more than a couple of minutes at most? tammywammy Aug 2018 #219

Mocking is not joking Madam Mossfern Aug 2018 #220

I said maybe, since it's pretty common for babies to not like being covered while nursing. tammywammy Aug 2018 #224

And this was the perfect opportunity for that mom Madam Mossfern Aug 2018 #227

She doesn't have to cover up, but she should be considerate and cover up. uppityperson Aug 2018 #228

Because being a considerate person Madam Mossfern Aug 2018 #229

Yet other people, those like you, don't need to be considerate of nursing babies and moms. uppityperson Aug 2018 #233

Nursing mothers don't think it's polite that you are trying to shame them. Where is your politeness? stevenleser Aug 2018 #215

I nursed four babies Madam Mossfern Aug 2018 #218

If you nursed four babies, your position is even harder to understand. nt stevenleser Aug 2018 #223

I'm just a considerate person Madam Mossfern Aug 2018 #226

She took a strap off her shoulder, there is no sleeve. Look at her right shoulder uppityperson Aug 2018 #232

And she could have taken the blanket that she has on her head Madam Mossfern Aug 2018 #235

No, you're not being considerate. Being considerate would mean you care about the comfort of other stevenleser Aug 2018 #237

You object to the momentary mocking behavior yet write reply after reply stating nursing moms should uppityperson Aug 2018 #241

It's about consideration all around. Madam Mossfern Aug 2018 #242

The main consideration should be to the hungry baby. uppityperson Aug 2018 #200

My baby wouldn't nurse if covered. Not understanding this possibility is disrespectful. uppityperson Aug 2018 #234
