Marianne,
I also have been asked this a few times and no, I don't pass on my
presentations. In my case I usually uses lots of photos of mothers and their
children and I don't have permission to allow them to be used by anyone
other than myself. The only exception I've made to this is the infant
feeding in emergencies presentation I did for WBW- which I was more than
happy to share.
