The final paragraph of a 1985 survey of Physicians says:

There are two negative strains in the descriptions [of LLL], 
however.  Slightly more than one quarter of the physicians,         29%, 
characterize La Leche League as "overzealous/extremists" and 6 % say that 
the League induces "guilt."  These criticisms are most prevalent among the 
Pediatricians and Family Practitioners and less common among Ob/Gyn's.  Also

those under 45 [years old] more often voice these criticisms than those over

45.  Nevertheless, on balance, the strong majority of physicians provide 
positive or neutral descriptions of La Leche League.

Attitudes Towards La Leche League International: A Research Study Among 
Physicians.  Conducted for Professional Services Division, Proctor & Gamble 
and La Leche League International, by HMB?Creamer Research and Glick & Lrwin

Group, Creamer Dickson Basford.  November 8, 1985.

I'm having such fun digging in the old CBI files :-)  Pat in SNJ
