sounds like a visit to http://overpopulationisamyth.com/ is in order…

basically, at our current rate, we’ll reach peak by 2050 and then begin to decline in numbers rapidly. we’ll be left with a much larger percentage of elderly as compared to young people, putting a strain on things such as social security, not to mention the numbers of working-age adults and the strain that will put on the workforce.

The world needs fewer people, not more. At this point, children are a liability and not a gift to the species.

I think moms should be able to breastfeed pretty much wherever they want, but let’s not pretend that they’re doing the rest of us a favour by continuing to fill up this vastly overpopulated planet.

I agree with this article whole heartily..it really brings things into retrospective..
but when I was nursing I couldn’t help but worry about other children that were not mine who saw ma peak of my breast because..as a child I saw a mom breastfeeding and because I did not know, it really made me scared and disturbed. breastfeeding wasn’t something I knew existed..anyway, keep on nursing!

This article was very informative. I am 31, have never wanted childern, and most likely, will never choose to have them. I used to be one of those people who glared at breastfeeding mothers, not because I found it indecent, but because I did not find it fair; if I have to wear my top at all times, so should they. Many of the women on hear made a very valid point in stating that many women (myself included) expose more of their breasts in their general attire than modest breastfeeding mothers expose while tending to the physical needs of their child. I will NEVER again look upon a nursing mother with disdain. Asking a nursing mother to hide something so innocent and natural is absurd and attempting to herd them into unsanitary conditions, such as public restrooms, is inhumane, disgusting, and flat out rude. Next time I see woman publicly breastfeeding, I will think of my ultra v-neck halter tops, smile to myself, and be grateful I live in a country where I don’t have to completely cover in head to toe, where women have the right to choose to breastfeed, bottle feed, or plain not have children at all.
