Breastfeeding and Controversy, should not be in the same sentence together...
Yet here they are in Military Moms Breastfeeding 'Controversey', an article in Yahoo.
It seems that as of late, breastfeeding is the big hot topic, and pictures, much like this one:
have people taking sides to the 'breastfeeding issue'.
When did breastfeeding become such a public issue? We seem to be talking an awful lot about making other people uncomfortable, it being 'ackward'? Or worse yet--when did it become sexualized?
This is definitely one of those things that Europeans have figured out.
This is a 'to each their own' kind of thing. Some women are more comfortable with a cover, and some don't care...Either way we need to be encouraging breastfeeding for the health of both Mom and baby, and supporting the Mom's that aren't able to for whatever reason.
Breastfeeding is normal. It's how, we as a species-survive. To treat it as anything else is ridiculous.
The key-women need to unit with one common goal-the right to breastfeed how it suits each individual.
