I find that the carseat analogy is helpful for raising the awareness
of healthcare providers and others about the importance of
breastfeeding. It can be an eye-opener for those who are wishy-washy
about breastfeeding yet don't hesitate to use strong language about
carseat use. It highlights the fact that breastfeeding deserves the
same kind of promotion.
I agree that it may not be an appropriate analogy to use when
counseling mothers directly. I do not use it that way myself.
