Janice,
Thanks for posting this link. It's hideous! Makes me feel physically ill.
What can be done? Do any of our Israeli lactnetters have any contacts. I
still have the paper written to inform aid orgs of why this is not a good
idea. If they knew that what they are doing is harmful they may change???
Clearly they think that they are doing a good thing but it's like when
westerners build orphanages...it increases child abandonment.
