Hi all,

 

When you are educating others about the WHO Code-what website(s) do you feel
best explain the issues to the person who has never even breastfed?  I have
given some commentary but would like to send them to a site or two that will
have all the relevant info in one spot.  And if someone knows where online
that story is about ----When the WHO Code was being debated and it got
heated before the vote, the delegate from a country in Africa who stood up
and said that the formula companies were killing his people, because the
babies needed breastmilk.  I think I heard Marsha Walker tell this story in
KC Missouri at dinner.  Marsha, I have already suggested they buy "Selling
Out".  

 

I have the listening ear of a large online community and I am trying to walk
a fine line, because one woman has already suggested this might be about
bashing mothers who formula feed.

 

Off to surf and compose a thoughtful response to that woman.

Thanks,

Nikki Simmons
