We don't want to get into a situation where mothers would rather
purchase someone else's breastmilk than put in the work to get their
own supplies established.<

This reminds me of the LLL policy way back when. We are talking about
over thirty years ago, and things have certainly changed!
LLL Leaders were then told it was OK to donate milk to mothers in
need, as long as the mothers were making every effort to bring in (or
bring back) their own milk.
