Breastfeeding

1 Conversation

While arguably the cheapest, healthiest, most natural and most convenient way for human mothers to feed their babies, the prevailing opinion of breastfeeding in many “civilized” countries falls somewhere between socially unacceptable and obscene. This causes many women to reject breastfeeding in favour of the infinitely messier, more time-consuming and more complicated method of formula feeding (a bonus for the formula companies who stand to make a hefty profit from their decision) and many babies to seriously question the meaning of the word “civilized”.
