Chill out

I don't buy Shaunti Feldhahn's opinion that breast feeding in public is wrong.

Would it be rude and creepy to stare at a woman feeding her child? Of course. But then again, it would be rude and creepy to stare anyway, right?

Let's ease off on the trying to regulate every aspect of life so fully. What is to be gained by this, versus what do we stand to lose by failing to acknowledge people as they are? Focus on how to structure situations to support women who support children, rather than trying to hide them under a rug.
