Lavinia,

Muchismas gracias - for sharing with us the article of the actions in the
Prado Museum.

I went to the previous links and found the one to the "letter" written by
the baby whose mom was told to stop breastfeeding (in all places, where "The
Naked Maya" is displayed!).  

Perhaps we need to have more letters sent by our babies - it seems that
there is such as "personification" or rather "adultification" of infants
(expecting them to BEHAVE and BE "adult"), we need to give voice to these
babies, communicating their TRUE (as much as we know it) thoughts and
beliefs.  

(loosely translated a paragraph said: 

"While I was eating and bothering no one besides my mom, not because it is
bad, but because I am heavy and mom's back is a bit sore, a man approached
us and told my mother she could not feed me in front of The Naked Maya
because she was not authorized to do it.  Authorized?  What does that word
mean?  Mom is not authorized to feed me when I'm hungry!  ... Well I don't
understand and cry begging an explanation.")

Again, thanks for sharing!

we ALL have in COMMON.)
