10/07 The Latest Debates
Quote From: lanerbugThis had nothing to do with Dr. Phil's opinion but more with his ability to reach people. He's a public figure and ultimately has a strong influence on people. He simply could have added some words of encouragement for breastfeeding moms or provided information about the medical benefits! He chose not to and for that I was disappointed. I agree. I was diappointed to hear him suggest a compromise to cover up. I would encourage others to consider the impact that they are having on mother's who choose to breastfeed. It's not dirty, and children don't know sex and to explain that this is how God intended for babies to eat would be a sufficient answer. Let's not be all about ourseleves, let's think of the benefits to the babies. If you do not know about breastfeeding call or go to the La Leche website to educate yourselves. Don't remain ignorant. Help others to support breastfeeding mom's. Who knows maybe one day your child will grow up and breastfeed.
