Good morning. I do not think that MDs are the isolated problem, and let
us remember that it is important not to slam an entire profession. It is
the individuals within systems who are acting outside the box of ethics
that are the problem.  That includes some nurses, some IBCLCs, some MDs,
some administrators, etc.

It is not globalized, and should not be characterized as such, if we
wish to maintain our own integrity. My thoughts.. Kathleen

No question that MDs are such a problem . . . has anybody read "Don't
kill Your Baby" by Jacqueline Wolf? It describes the transition from a
breastfeeding to bottle-feeding culture in Chicago during the turn of
the century. In the process it describes the "birth" of the pediatrics
(which occurred here). The chapter on the MILK (not formula) industry is
highly revealing about business and health priorities.
