The article Barbara Ash posted stated: "For most families, there are no
implications," Freishtat said. "However, if there is some concern for a
latex allergy, silicone alternatives to traditional latex nipples and
pacifiers are widely available and have the added advantage of being more
durable than latex."

Breasts are even more widely available and even more "advantageous." Funny
how the article didn't include breastfeeding as a viable "alternative."

Sigh.
