Posting photos of nursing babies online

On another board, a poster has a long siggy that includes a slideshow of nursing babies from her playgroup. Another poster took offense at it and there has been quite the debate over the appropriateness of the siggy. I posted a message inviting people here to discuss that issue, and I hope that one of the posters from that particular playgroup comes here, at least so we can see what the siggy looks like. I'm having a hard time forming coherent thoughts today, LOL! So don't worry if I don't come back to debate the issue with you, I'm trying to get out of the office so I can go home & sleep.


As "Linda Richmond" (aka Mike Myers) from SNL would say, "talk amongst yourselves."

BF doesn't just "lower risks", it provides things FF never could. You absolutely CAN "do harm" to a child by not BF him/her. If you would like further evidence of the science behind this, please poke around the board, especially in the Newsstand folder.

No, you said "tell FF mothers they are...bad mothers". I don't see the word "implied" anywhere in YOUR statement, do you? Here it is:

I can only know what you post, in your own words. If you meant to say something else, then say what you mean instead.

I guess. :) I'm here, aren't I? LOL... I debated for years on the SAH/WOH board, long after having made my own decision.

Thank you so much for answering my question! I think the rotation is very fun, and I love seeing your babies in so many different pics. :O)

Rock on, Becca! NOBODY should. Not BF'ers, nor the people who are "uncomfortable" watching them. We need to move toward a place in this society where people respect one another more, in so many regards.

<<Well.. I'll put it this way. I know which posts they were, because I responded to them. If I post that someone has posted rude anti-FF things, and then those posts get deleted, I can't really do anything about it. Nobody has to believe me, but I don't really see any reason to lie about it. >>


I'm not accusing you of lying...and

Yes, she did say "could be", but other people didn't. I think I want to debate with Carolyn all day, she's intelligent, respectful, and doesn't tell me I'm a meany if I disagree with her. ;)

Maybe I've seen you over there? I enjoy that board. This one is my "home," so I don't post there very often unless there's a topic that pushes my buttons. There was one about extended breastfeeding that I couldn't tear myself away from for the better part of a week!

The CL isn't in a position to know why a post was pulled. That is the realm of the moderators, so if you have any questions about how the TOS is applied you need to ask them.
