Woman kicked off plane for breastfeeding!
I first heard the news blurb on tv last night.
Here is the story at Motherwear’s Breastfeeding Blog.
Can you believe a woman was recently kicked off a Delta Airlines flight for discreetly breastfeeding her child!? Read an msnbc article.
*SIGN THE PETITION TO SUPPORT BREASTFEEDING.
Join me in telling Delta Airlines to get a clue and be supportive of breastfeeding mothers; and also in telling Congress it’s time to pass the Breastfeeding Promotion Act, which amends the Civil Rights Act of 1964 to protect breastfeeding mothers.
Thank you for sharing, the things that society allows and doesn’t allow is unbelievable, where is the line and who’s deciding. On the blog I liked the one woman’s comment about that there are tons of advertisements and women walking around showing cleavage and lots of skin but a woman feeding her baby is something that needs to be hidden.
I’ve been reading some the messages from the Motherwear blog and thinking about public breastfeeding in general, complaints about exposure due to breastfeeding…after reading your message on Motherwear about your flight from Norway, I was reminded of my (and Emily’s) return flight home from Norway in which I was seated next to a woman who’s V-neck sweater showed more cleavage that you (or I) ever have while breastfeeding…I’m curious now what might have ensued had I complained that her exposure offended me!!
