I don't know exactly what answer you are looking for, Kathleen. I just feel
that in working with all socioeconomic, cultural, and ethnic backgrounds
coupled with ages of moms varying between about 13 and 45, there are some
women who just plain are not interested in breastfeeding and believe it or not,
some of them do know the risks of formula and do know what's what and they
still choose NOT to breastfeed. It is not my place to force any issue on them.
Personally, I have enough to do at work helping the mothers who are
committed without expending extra energy banging my head against a wall
with a mother who clearly is NOT at all interested in or committed to
breastfeeding.
Yes, many lack support, but there are others who despite the fact, choose
formula. They ahve made a conscious choice and it is not my place to
intgerfere in tha
What are you looking for in my question, Kathleen?
