I just came across this fascinating YouTube video about bringing parent/baby pairs into classrooms to teach empathy to older children: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gIgLGt4hZuY I then went to their Web Site to root around for...well...you know...a mention of BREASTFEEDING of course! This page caught my attention: http://www.rootsofempathy.org/safety.html I promptly wrote a short email asking them if they had policies that support normal infant feeding when mother/baby pairs visit the classrooms. I also shared references to two recent articles on breastfeeding wrt abuse/neglect and SIDS. I'll let everyone know if I get a response, but WOW the potential for normalization seems huge!!!!!
