I received a phone call today from a friend/LLL Leader. She had had a call
from a mother who is an employee at a health club. The mother is employed
inthe nursery as a caregiver, and has always brought her child to the
nursery also, to work with her. The child is 26 mo now, I believe..and
"people" have been complaining about this child nursing during the mother's
worktime. It was ok as long as it was a small baby, but now the mother has
been told that it is no longer good for her baby, and that she can't nurse
there...anymore. She has also been told that employees have complained, and
so have other people who bring their child in for care there.
What would we be able to tell this mother to help her deal with this
situation. She feels she is doing a good job while at work, and my feeling
is that the health club had better be setting a policy for ALL
employees..not jsut for this one mother just because they feel like it
is"disgusting, or not good for the woman's baby anymore.". Can they just
set a policy for ONE employee, and not for others, ?
Disgusted.
