I agree, Pamela, that comparing ff to AIDS can be set in a scientific
context .
But this comparison was not done in a scientific forum, or to bf
supporters, but to a class of expectant parents.
I aim to tell the truth about infant feeding in the classes I do, but I
don't distress or anger people, or throw out dramatic comparisons that I
don't have time to fully explain, and I don't deal in attention-grabbing
soundbites, or play into the hands of anti-breastfeeding interests.
This was an error by the ABM counsellor.
