It was in the USA, in the state of Georgia. A young mother named Avery Lane went to the post office for the company with her friend. She sat down on a chair, waiting for her to finish her business and they could go further on business. But ... young moms can always happen somehow. Here at Avery her baby, peacefully sleeping in a sling, suddenly woke up and made it clear that he was hungry. Hungry means you need to feed. What Avery and took up. The view of the nursing mother, however, the staff of the post office somewhat embarrassed. One of the managers approached her: "Do not you have a towel or something like that to hide behind?" "I was just shocked! She looked at him and said that I did not have towels, but there was a muslin diaper, I could lend him that he would cover his face with it, "Avery indignantly lamented in her facebook.Photo: @AveryLane She was, by the way, in her right. According to the laws of the State of Georgia (yes, many states of America have their own laws, sometimes quite idiotic), a mother has the right to breast-feed an infant anywhere she wants. However, the manager asked the woman to leave the room and continue to feed the child somewhere else. Avery did not just leave, she called the police. "I decided that if this ignoramus does not know the laws, then the police will be able to tell them about them," the woman continued. The policemen arrived. And explained to the manager that there is nothing wrong with the fact that the mother is breastfeeding. And if he does not like it - this is his purely personal problems. "I did this so that my mothers would not hesitate to breastfeed. I refuse to cover my child or hide in the car when I need to feed him, "Avery said. Mamu was supported by many people. Her post in "Facebook" scored 46 thousand likes and almost 12 thousand reposts. And the comments, which were very ambiguous: "I do not understand why the request to take cover causes so much protest. What in this request is so humiliating? But nobody asks you to hide in a closet or put a paper bag on your head. For some reason, the need to wear shorts, leaving the house, does not anger anyone, - one of the readers wrote. - And if you were visiting someone and the owners asked you to hide behind, would you also call the police? »How do you think it is permissible to breastfeed in public?
- Why not? Little do you know where the baby wants to eat.
- It's an intimate affair, exposing it to shamelessness.
- If you do not feed at home, you can always find a nook.
- If you hide behind a scarf, then no one will notice anything. You do not have to make an elephant out of a fly!
- Go to restaurants, while breastfeeding is not the most necessary occupation. To guess it is necessary under feeding.
