I have to ask this question.  Would someone ask a health ed teacher to
discuss the benefits of smoking for balance?  Then why should we even
consider giving balance to a discussion about infant feeding decisions.
When someone requests this of a breastfeeding advocate, they are asking
far too much.  If it means your job, then I guess I'd use some of the
ideas posted.  But I think the person who requested this is very
under-educated.  It seems so odd to me that in every other health care
decision, a balanced view is not considered important.  We can look at
vaccinations, child birth, etc.  Its very rare that you hear both sides
of those decisions at any institution.  Valerie W. McClain, IBCLC
