Feeding a Mark of Bad Motherhood?""
Very interesting article. I don't think bottle-feeding is a mark of
bad motherhood - just that many mothers make a very poor choice, even
though they are clearly "informed" of the benefits. I think
sometimes it just boils down to the fact that some mothers are just
too self-centered and selfish to breastfeed their own children. And
certainly, there are breastfeeding mothers who are not "good" mothers
either (but at least their babies are getting optimal nourishment and
immunities.)
