Hi all!  I am usually a lurker and am back to Lactnet after many weeks of
hard drive problems.  Just thought I'd comment on the teen boys subject.  I
have 4 kids: 21 and soon to be 19 year old daughters and 16 and 14 year old
sons.  For several years I have kept two breastfeeding postcards on my
refrigerator.  One is a postcard I think I picked up at the ILCA conference
in Washington, D.C. that says "Fast, free food for babies" and shows mom and
baby nursing.  Another is a  breastfeeding picture given to me by our Medela
rep.  At first, my boys would ask me to take the postcards off the
refrigerator when their friends were coming over ( I told them it was my job
to educate their friends).  Then they just began to place magnets over the
breasts, and now they don't even think about it.  Many, many boys come
through our kitchen; sometimes they stop and look, sometimes they ask why
they're there, but most of the time they no longer give it a second thought!
  Just my way to teach boys (and girls, and adult friends as well!) what
breasts are for!
