[ID] 742 [Interest Areas] Concerned Citizen [Comment] As a parent, I have found it practically impossible to find books, movies, videos, and other media that portray breastfeeding as acceptable and normal. Bottles abound, even in adds for breastfeeding. Breastfeeding, if mentioned, is usually negatively commented on unless the book or movie came out before 1950 or after 2000. Prejudices against breastfeeding are still being emphasized. It's truly frustrating to raise my children without them becoming confused. But I think what's worse is that there have been many places where the topic could have been raised in a respectful manner in the media, and instead they've buried the topic because of controversy and the possibility that people may become uncomfortable or they've sensationalized one area making it into a war, when it shouldn't be.
