>>Next thing-About a week ago I was watching Sesame Street with my kids (who
=
are being brought up to think bottles are taboo) and the theme that day =
was "BABIES".  NOT ONE breastfeeding baby was show BUT several bottles =
were show.  I've gone to CTW's website but cannot find a way to comment.  =
Any suggestions?  I definitely expect more out of SS!!!!<<

I have this same beef with Sesame Street as well.  They frequently show
artificial feeding devices with babies.  I have never seen breastfeeding
even mentioned.  Arthur is another one.  Arthur even has books about their
baby and artificial feeding.  :o(
On an up note....Mr. Roger's had the most beautiful breastfeeding segment I
have ever seen!  Brought tears to my eyes.
