Jennifer talked about the baby's rights. I think it is time to
reframe the issue of BF. Just last night I wrote a reporter
regarding a headline about a mother's "right to breastfeed" in a
custody dispute. Why isn't it the "baby's right to be breastfed?"
Last summer, when I was on Good Morning America re: public BF, I
spoke about the *child's* right to have the healthiest start in life.
We keep on talking about the mother's rights--what about the child's?
