**Thank you, Cathy, for this description. This is how I feel as well, even 
though my knowledge doesn't compare to yours... ;o)
I already started feeling 'greedy' and 'uncooperative', after reading some 
of the other comments... :-((
I know in my heart that I'm not; I just feel that it is fair that we get the 
recognition we deserve for the work we have done.
And like you say: it is hard to teach something that you did not study in 
depth.
I will keep thinking about the best way to deal with situations like this...

Warmly,

Marianne Vanderveen IBCLC, Netherlands (and parttime promotor of SSS! 
hahaha)
