I breast fed five of my six children and never did it in public. Of course if I saw another woman breast feeding her child I would not stand there staring. If she has any morals she will have herself covered up so that it will not be showing her breast while she is performing such a deed. A baby usually feeds every four hours so there is enough time for her to get from one place to another or go home if she is in a neighborhood park. If she is on a picnic she should go to the family car and feed her baby in private.

Everything depends on the customs and morals that each one of us was taught. In every era there are those of us who will feel uncomfortable showing most of our body to others and there are those who are not bothered in the least. Again, this becomes a Pandora's box wherein once we allow this to be done in public people will then want to be allowed to walk around with no tops on, make love in public, stand on the corner and urinate in public.

It becomes a line that will have no barriers.

Just read the papers and see what happened in Brooklyn over the weekend of September 29th 2007. People want freedom of expression and they sprayed homes all over with the Swastika and vile insults to the Jews.

A few years ago they placed steel hangers all over a Catholic Church because of the Catholic Church's stand on abortion.

People have no respect for the Presidency and make fun of President Bush and there are so many e-mails making fun of all the candidates, we have crossed the line with freedom of speech and we will cross the line on nudity once we start allowing people to expose themselves.

We are not animals we are made in God's image and we should behave as such.
