This is a real sore spot for me. I never wanted to choose between church and my children, as I thought it a faulty dilemma. Tried quite a few churches (we moved a lot) without much success - best was "cry rooms" with glass windows and sound isolation. The last straw was being invited to teach children's bible classes then being told my nursing toddler couldn't ride in the backpack while I taught. I quit going altogether and have never been back except as a guest at weddings. Organized religion ought to actively support (dare I say "preach?") public and extended breastfeeding. How do they think baby Jesus was fed? And for how long? And where? And Mary probably didn't have an epidural, either. Linda Smith, Dayton OH
