If anyone has the time....or inclination.....go check out the LeLeche International website. LeLeche, from some research I've been doing, seems to be a driving force behind this nursing IA mother nonsense and has been actively fighting the detention and deportation of nursing mothers overseas for awhile now. They've now brought it here, apparently.
LeLeche promotes breastfeeding for as long as the mother and/or child feel it is necessary.......a practice called "extended breastfeeding". In fact, there is a story on the site by a woman who was nursing all three of her kids at one time.......a baby, her then 3 year old toddler, and her first child who was presumably 5-6 years old at the time because, to paraphrase, it "comforted him" and "he wasn't to be left out of the mix". Unless I missed it, she never mentioned just when her kids were weaned.
This is a ploy which is going to be played to the hilt. Right now we are only hearing about mothers not being available to nurse. What concessions are going to be demanded next.......no arrest, monitoring, or other action taken at all because stressful situations can impede milk production, or might upset a baby rendering it incapable of nursing, etc?
Are limits and restrictions going to be imposed or are mothers with kids over 1 year old going to be allowed to use the nursing mother excuse indefinitely? Is medical documentation going to be required to prove that a mother is actually nursing or are women who've given birth....like my neighbor's co-workers......going to be able to get away with pumping to stimulate milk production even though they are not really nursing their children?
Fortunately, this lactation business is not preventing deportations but it's going to quickly get out of hand unless some very clear guidelines and restrictions are put into place. :?
Funny we have no such provisions for legal citizens who are nursing at the time of their arrest. Our judicial system even incarcerates pregnant women, and has no qualms with separating mother from baby after birth.
Why do they continue to be manipulated by people who have no legal right to even be in this country? If this is permitted, it will only be the beginning. The Lord only knows what they will attempt next.
