    Yes they are. They don't have the right to drink, smoke, drive, vote etc.

    In any case, while I don't really give a shít either way, I don't see why, when we have laws and societal expectations regarding exposing oneself, that an exception should be made simply because a mother is breastfeeding.

    Going to the toilet has an equally valid case for being called "the most natural thing in the world", yet most toilet facilities are isolated and private. Something being natural does not necessarily mean that society is obliged to witness it.

    Why can't she just use a breast pump in the morning, then there's no awkward social situation. I've been talking to women with babies and they start breastfeeding and it is awkward. I agree that it should be kept private, like an other exposure, and since breast pumps are available then I see no argument that women should just start breastfeeding in public.

    NO! she whipped her tits out and sat him on her lap.

    didnt take 2 seconds for us to move away.
    That does sound disturbing.

    I don't mind if friends or family breastfeed infront of me, although if its in the middle of a crowded public place then it does seem a little odd.
