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."

"Cathymac denied I saw that term here, and I proved that I did."
I never denied that you did or didn't see anything. I denied that *I* saw the term here.
And apparently you did, but it wasn't used in the context that you implied.

"By having a secure attachment to their parents, AP children are often friendly, independant, well adjusted and secure children. They are very rarely "attached to mommy's apron strings" and if you want to get right down to it, cio is more likely to cause attachment issues than babying a baby. The more you push a child away the more they are going to act out in an attempt to get your attention."
Well, my independent study of two would seem to support this.

"So you would agree that the more someone hears/sees something the more socially acceptable it becomes? I am not saying *you* agree with it necessarily, but before you were arguing that it is not really true that this is the case. Yet you just described that in a different setting. So by our photo tag being seen over and over, it will become more commonplace and more people will think, oh that is just a baby eating."
Hey, nice job bringing it back!

>>Does this mean that carseats do not actually reduce the risk of injury in the event of an accident? Some kids who do not get breastmilk will not get sick or if they do, they have only minor illnesses. Some breastfed kids will get seriously ill and even die. Does this mean that breastfeeding doesn't really protect kids from illness, infection and disease?<<
I think you missed my point, or misunderstood it. I totally agree that breastfeeding reduces risk. I think that saying that formula causes harm is not accurate. Breastmilk decreases risk, but feeding your child anything besides breastmilk would be the converse, not formula alone.
