Barbara,

I wouldn't waste my breath.  I have written multiple times to Oprah
regarding a show about breastfeeding and barely get a form letter back.  She
has no intention of representing breastfeeding or natural birth on her show.
She isn't as concerned about human life as she says, it apparently boils
down to the almighty dollar and ratings.  UGH!

breastfed for many years, they do not become greedy people. They come from a
place of fullness and balance with all our relations." Jeannine Parvati

Anyone actually watch the show and have general idea about what Oprah said
re
BF and the dad?  Sounds like a letter to Oprah with info on how dads can be
included, etc. might be helpful, so would like more specific info if anyone
has it so I can work on this.  Thanks!
