People who defend this kind of behavior are the reason this country is such a mess. This isn't to say there aren't gray areas, but some things are clearly right or clearly wrong, and denying this is foolish. Willingly breaking the law and endangering your children falls under the "clearly wrong" category. This isn't passing judgment on this woman, it's making a moral judgment about this particular behavior. Noone is helping this woman by defending her behavior or making excuses for her (or anyone else who would do this). Instead, you are condemning her to repeat her actions with the understanding that they are ok or excusable. Not only that, but if she were ever in an accident while breastfeeding and her baby died, she would have to live with the terrible guilt of knowing she killed her baby. How about we give gentle guidance backed up with legal measures (if necessary) instead of encouraging stupid and dangerous behavior?
