Hmmmm....seems like certain folks have a double standard. They don't worry
about making moms feel guilty FOR breastfeeding, but don't want to induce
guilt in mothers who DON'T breastfeed.
This doesn't compute. You can't have it both ways. If guilt (presuming it
is even possible to induce this) is an effective tool for behavior change
to "make" mothers "Stop breastfeeding," it is also fair and justified to
use this tool to induce them TO breastfeed.
Or it's a bad idea to use guilt for these same purposes.
Thanks, Dr. Jack, for bringing up the idea for this train of thought.
