That reminds me of an exchange I actually have on my website. It was my
friend's daughter Cara and her friend. Cara was breastfed and so were her
two younger siblings, and Mom is a LLL leader. Anyway... her friend said
to her one day, "My mom used to nurse us in PUBLIC!" Cara, not missing a
beat, replied, "So what? I eat in public all the time..." ;)
