Hi, Veronica: I am the one who posted on Ther American way being expensive and high technology. I most certainly am not offended. You are absolutely right on in saying that is one of the reasons why people in the US have problems with breastfeeding in public. I agree with you wholeheartedly. I'm glad you posted on the "norm" in your country. It helps those of us in the US understand what happens in "the rest of the world". We sometimes get too ethno-centric and occasionally need to be reminded that there are other ways to do things.
