Pauline, I would suggest placing a large emphasis on what breastfeeding can
do for a young women in her future.  Discussions on breast cancer, ovarian
cancer and osteoporosis.  Then I would discuss the benefits and connections with
the child.  Since the teacher has already opened the comparison of
breastfeeding and formula I would point out the risks of formula feeding.
Ann ice breaker to start the talk my be to have each person give on comment
they have heard or feel about breastfeeding.
