in this lecture, there may be information that makes them feel
angry...angry that they were never taught this correct information,
angry that they did not breastfeed because they got incorrect
information, etc, and for that I have provided you with rotten tomatoes
to throw at me when you feel that something I have said goes against
everything you have ever learned or done.
There are certain points in the lecture that the room is full of flying
"tomatoes" and this really breaks the tension in the room and we all
laugh instead of being angry. We discuss the issue which caused the
reaction, and neutralize the tension.   I also have some slides which I
add a big red SPLAT to in order to emphasize that I can predict which
slide will cause that reaction."

Dear Esther,

I am a bit behind in my Lactnet reading... but I wanted to thank you for
your post .

In my job as an IBCLC, I work in a Public Health Department and a major part
of my task pertains to teaching an modified 18-hour course to HCP to help
Hospitals and Community Health Centers (government sponsored community
clinics) to become Baby-Friendly.

I want to congratulate you on the very original and ice-breaking teaching
technique for addresssing change in breastfeeding science !

I would love to receive your list.  Could you include also where exactly you
add the big red SPLATS ?
