<< teaching kids about fertility awareness
and topics such as LAM is never on anyone's agenda. >>

Washington Post yesterday a hugh ad about how women around the world have
babies so close together, and all the ramifications of that - further
poverty, malnutrition, mother and baby mortality and morbidity, babies prones
to infectious illness.....and how if we think it is the mother's fault *we
(the ad readers)* are just ignorant.....and then they focused on birth
control meds.....of course never mentioned BF and LAM as economical solutions
to the many problems addressed and are seeking funds to fix..... gave an web
address to go to, which I have not seen yet, but it seems to me from their ad
that *they* have the knowledge deficit:

www.familyplanet.org

So, maybe there is a Lactnetter with an up-to-date LAM file who might want to
do some education today.
