Linda J. Smith, co-author of " Absurd Advice: Ridiculous Reasons to Wean," will share her stories and anecdotes at noon PDT on www.kvmr.org (streaming live on the internet). The flow of absurd advice, ridiculous reasons to wean, and silly statements continues. Some of these stories are only a few months old. Fortunately, the climate of ignorance, prejudice, and hostility toward breastfeeding, which provided fertile ground for these stories, is rapidly and thankfully diminishing. While this ignorance lasts, we believe that exposing it is one means to combat it. Callers may call in and share their own stories at 530-265-9555 (outside of the U.S., add international dialing code). In the Sacramento and foothills, try our toll-free number, 1-800-355-KVMR (5867), and tune in to 89.5 FM. Linda Smith, BSE, FACCE, IBCLC is an internationally known author, teacher and lecturer, and proud grandmother. Tune in to "The Coach" at noon PDT today! *********************************************** To temporarily stop your subscription: set lactnet nomail To start it again: set lactnet mail (or digest) To unsubscribe: unsubscribe lactnet All commands go to [log in to unmask] The LACTNET mailing list is powered by L-Soft's renowned LISTSERV(R) list management software together with L-Soft's LSMTP(R) mailer for lightning fast mail delivery.
