This comment reminds me of the type of comments that people make about
breastfeeding in public: "those women can just breastfeed at home- there's
no need for them to do it in a public place"
Women should not be prevented from active public life because they are
breastfeeding. In the "grand scheme of things" I can't see how the degree of
separation required for sitting the exam is going to be an issue for most
babies!
I find it amazing that anyone on this list could suggest that the weight of
duty lies with any other than IBLCE to provide accommodation to
breastfeeding women sitting the exam.

Sticking my neck out again.....maybe she should just wait a year. In the
grand scheme of things
perhaps the baby needs her more than she needs to take the exam THIS year.
To quote a really nice
song: To everything turn turn turn there is a season......
