Talk:Child's Right to Nurse Act

Neutrality and Citations
I added two sets of tags in the article addressing citations and POV. Saying that breastfeeding mothers were "harassed" is neither neutral nor informative. The article needs to say what actually happened to these women. Were they asked to leave? Were they asked to use a blanket? Saying the women were "feeding discreetly" is also biased in their favor and uninformative. Does discreetly mean that the child was fed under a blanket, or does it mean that the mother went somewhere a bit further away, but still visible? Citations are needed for these specific events. What are the instances of these mothers at pools, restaurants, etc.? One last note about using the terms "harassment" and "discreetly": the people who confronted the mothers clearly felt that the mothers were not discreet enough. The confronters could also claim that they felt harassed by the mothers' insistence to feed in public. "Discreetly breastfeeding mother harassed by onlooker" and "indiscreetly breastfeeding mother harasses onlooker" could both describe the exact same situation from different points of view, and neither statement describes it well.

I am the mother HARRASSED in Charleson. I was DISCREET, though this is and should be, my prerogative. Discreet in my vocabulary means that you could see nothing more than you would on any public beach or on lingerie commercials. I do not use a blanket, as I don't think it's comfortable to eat under one myself. I was somewhere a bit more private, out of the flow of traffic, but still visible. I was at an arena, attending an auto show, with my family. I did not care then, nor do I now, if "onlookers" (why look? - especially if it bothers you?) feel harrassed by my child receiving life sustaining nourishment. The person who confronted me, a security guard, told me that passersby had complained. BIG DEAL! She suggested at first that I remove myself and my child to a nearby RESTROOM. I can't speak for others, but I refuse to eat in a bathroom and will not feed my children (anything) in one. When I refused, she said she would return with management, but before she came back, we fininshed and left. I hope this clears up any questions...
