I just came across this fascinating YouTube video about bringing parent/baby
pairs into classrooms to teach empathy to older children:

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!!!!!
