Yes,

Snappy comebacks are funny, can help one to vent....

However do we really want to create more adversaries, make others even more
defensive?   I think advocacy and education is a more positive approach.

I agree wholeheartedly that medical school and pediatric residency training
programs do not do enough to teach about breastfeeding.  That's all the more
reason to make allies!

I still think that part of the solution lies in creating a way to dialogue
with doctors and nurses who are unaware.

Just a suggestion,
