Although medical professionals and organizations promote breastfeeding as the healthiest choice for women and infants, the increasing number of controversial news stories about breastfeeding indicate that our culture is still plagued by quite a few antiquated and sexist notions that are taking a toll on mothers and babies.
A nationwide “nurse-in” protest at Target stores is being staged by breastfeeding mothers in direct response to a Michelle Hickmans claim that she was harassed while trying to sit down and nurse her child in a Target store by several employees, and also on the phone by the manager when she called to complain.
Breastfeeding Support and Advocacy 
It makes me so angry when this sort of thing happens. There should be more support, not just from other breast feeding moms, but everywhere.
So let me get this straight, all day long we hear about the benefits of breastfeeding, and how it’s so healthy for our children, not to mention bringing health care costs down, and then when we try to breast feed, they make us feel like we’re doing something wrong! How confusing!
