Jan - when I hear about *support* groups, what springs to mind is a bunch of people
with debilitating conditions or problems. Breastfeeding, however, is a normal,
healthy, human function. Would it not be more accurate to say that we provide
*education and encouragement*, rather than *support*, which has such negative
connotations?
