How comfortable is it for the baby to have to be under a blanket, hidden away from everyone? Hot and stuffy under a blanket. Making both mom and baby uncomfortable. And how is seeing a breastfeeding mother making anyone feel 'unsafe'? If they (other passengers) are uncomfortable they can ask to be reseated. The rights need to be evenly distributed, and by making a legally held right an uncomfortable event for the mom an baby is hypocritical at best. Not only that, but breastfeeding DOES provide extra comfort to a baby during takeoff and landing. Will they never freaking learn?Funky Mamahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00408020351504341616noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2762078205186739833.post-33207301998290362402008-08-14T11:30:00.000-05:002008-08-14T11:30:00.000-05:00Growl....OUTRAGEOUS! I've been posting on the Blog...Growl....OUTRAGEOUS! I've been posting on the Blogher debate as well, and it's just got me totally fired up. This angers me so much. I actually am so angry that I'm not sure what to type about all of this anymore. I really believe that all of this stems from the male majority's inability to reconcile breastfeeding with pornagraphic images of women. It is especially shameful that a female flight attendant has a problem with a nursing mother. I can only assume that she is young and has no children to feel the need to have a nursing mother cover herself. If not, then god help her and her own children!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
