The best way to feed a baby (in order of most beneficial to least):

1.Mum feeds baby at breast as often as baby wishes

2.Another woman b'feeds baby as often as baby wants

3.Baby is fed expressed breastmilk

4.Formula is used This is to ensure the optimal physical and emotional development of baby. B'feeding is medically proven to be superior in every way.

All it reinforces are the myths that breastfeeding beyond 6 months isn't necessary. We need ONE law that protects ALL breastfeeding mothers. Why have an age limit???? We'd be celebrating the bill if it weren't for that.

Wow Veronika breasts are still huge

I agree breastfeeding should be socially accepted, I have no problem with it. but at any age? I think that's socially inappropriate and wrong, I saw the video of your child breastfeeding at the age of eight and thought that actually it's disruptive and does not allow her to grow up! At eight years old you should be starting to mature, and to see the breast as a way to calm down is not allowing her to develop for later life, I think it's very disruptive for a child and their development.

I am breastfeeding and sometimes need to do it in a public place. It speaks for itself that I won't hang my boobs in someone elses face or plate and try to conceile any detail by wearing nursing tops and sitting in a discreate place. Not only do I not want to embarress others but would feel uncomfotable to have people staring at me. Still I think we have a right to do the most natural thing there is. A baby or child needs to feed and should ideally do this by breastfeeding!

Breast feeding is the most natural thing on the planet and I believe that the law shouldn't tell a woman she can't do it in public.

However, I do believe that women need to be a little modest about it (don't just whip out your breast and let the baby have at it). Nowadays there are great nursing bras and tanktops, blankets and covers for that purpose.

If a woman weren't breast feeding and she were to expose her breasts in public (even in a non-sexual manner), she would be ticketed or fined.

this is the weirdest thing i have ever seen. Sure thing guys feed your kids whenever they need it, but like buddy boy said earlier be modest. peeple dont get naked and pee in the streets, i dont need to see your boobs. genuinely. and "breastfeeding at any age" - this literally disgusts me, will someone please arrest this woman. or at least tell her how much of a mentalist she is. its not right to breastfeed your kids wen theyre old enough to walk. get a grip.

agreed. Be modest when you breastfeed. Urination and defication are natural too but people don't do that in front of others if there is any way of having privacy.

[claudette33]

Breast feeding is the most natural thing in the world and personally I wouldn't be embarrassed by seeing a woman in public breast feeding, however SOME women who want to breast feed in public do not make any attempt to do in a modest way so as not to cause embarrassment to those around them. But I feel sorry for any man who happens to catch a glimpse and then gets shouted at, called a sex pest, pervert, rapist, etc. I've seen it happen.

hmmm, you must be american

i don't see how feeding a child can be seen as sexual!
