Dear Kathy, thanks for sounding like an anthropologist!  I wasn't sure how
to respond to the comment

Frankly it bothered me, as a HCP to inner city people (mainly small ones).
We just don't know what life is like - we haven't got a clue - out here in
suburbia.  It is a whole different world and before we make statements like
the above we need to go there and find out what it REALLY is like!

I'd love to teach those values and the value of BF and the value of every
child, and lots of other values that I feel are important.  I do it as best
I can, one mom at a time.  Sincerely, Pat in SNJ
