Mariana Flores de Camino: Breastfeeding: a Woman's Right!

| Breastfeeding |
In that sense, when you're a mother, everything you do, yes, it is certainly for the welfare of your child and knowing that he is hungry, kills you some way, and you do everything to make your child be fed as he should. So, when that child is still a baby, he or she needs all the nutrients to grow healthy and strong, and therefore needs breast milk that you can give him/her. Although there is on the market a wide range of baby food, even milk with a specific formula for your child, but the best thing you could do is to give him the milk from your own body; that milk could save him/her from diseases and will make his little belly as strong as a big tree. So, why is society scandalized when a mother has the need to feed her baby on the street? Is it a sin that she offered his naked breast to the mouth of her child?
A controversial society:

Could
it be a sin if she doesn't have all the equipment at that time and exposes her
breast only to feed his/her child?
It is sad that society tortures women so badly with this kind of judgment. They cannot feed their child on
the street because it is an offense to the eyes of those who have nothing more
to do than sit staring at the breast of those women.
Women have the right to
feed their children where they want to and where
they can; and this is because your child will not wait to be
in a right place to mourn and yell
you that he is hungry. Is a baby an adult being? Of
course not! A baby needs her mother, and she has a duty to take care of him/her.
Women all over the
world, when your child is hungry, feed him! Because your baby is not going to
die for the opinion of some indifferent beings who do not know the benefits of
motherhood. It is your right as a woman and as a
mother to feed your baby
wherever you please. Don't feel ashamed because the best after all is to see
your child growing thanks to the good decisions made by you!
