Jessica , I think informing about the hazards of formula is part of our professional responsibility as much as it is to teach proper position and latch and avoiding bottles and pacifiers because of nipple confusion and anything else we do with our clients. Withholding information limits peoples ability to make an informed choice. Information that is new, different from what was previously thought, may shake one's belief system and take some time to sink in, but when presented as facts with a solid base of evidence, I don't see how it can be viewed as fanaticism. (If you need material in Hebrew about the hazards of formula, contact me, I have lots, including a translation of ILCA's document by Marsha Walker).
