Picked up some light reading, a novel to read, "goodnight nobody" by 
Jennifer Weiner, c.2005

It's about an urban mom who moves 45 minutes out of Manhattan to suburbia. 
She has a 5 yo and 4 yo twins.....

Page 23:
The parents behaved as if this were perfectly natural, as if, in fact, this 
were the only way they could imagine raising their young.  I couldn't figure 
out why.  Maybe after they delievered their babies a malevolent lactation 
consultant had sprinkled Super-Mommy dust onto their pillows, or had bent 
and whispered into each sleeping ear, 'from now on, the only thing you will 
care about is breast-feeding, toilet training, Mommy and Me Pilates mat 
classes, and whether the Kindergarten's better at Greentown Friends or 
Upchurch Country Day.'

Just wanted you to know we are no longer BF nazis, now we are malevolent LCs 
who twist minds :-(

The story is kind of fun so far tho.  Pat in SNJ
