Kathy Dettwyler wrote some great stuff!  Thanks for another great post! Can
we have information on the figures used below and can we quote them?
<   Cocaine use during pregnancy lowers a child's IQ on average 3
 points, while formula lowers it on average 5-8 points.  We have LAWS against
 cocaine use, for everybody, all the time.  But formula is still considered
 "just as good" or "almost as good" or "good enough."  It is time that
 formula-use *when it is not necessary* (the vast majority of the time) be
 recognized as *reckless endangerment of a child* with appopriate penalties.
 If people don't want to breastfeed, they shouldn't be having children.
