I agree completely with the post about how we phrase things and the impact it
has.  I have often said that the way most people perceive artificial vs
breast feeding is that ABM provides what the baby needs and breast milk gives
something "more", a little bonus nutrition or something.  I would love to see
that turned aroudnd, so that breast milk is perceived as providing just what
as needed and ABM as providing less than what is needed.  Until that change
occurs, breastfeeding will not become the "cutural norm".\
