A Texas City woman said she was hurt and ashamed after being ordered to leave a city pool Sunday for breastfeeding her baby. Misty Daugereaux said she was nursing her 10-month-old son Maxx at the Nessler Family Aquatic Center.

If by lactation room you mean bathroom, I would never feed an infant in a restroom. OTH, if it is an actual room with comfy chairs, I would choose it first. Food court seats are notoriously not comfortable because they want you to eat and leave.
Homie kids don’t scare me, they all have moms (actually, that’s probably all they have, which is why they are public nuisances) and if they are stupid enough to post my picture on social media, it will be very short work to find their mothers and let them know that their boy needs educated.
Seeing how I had zero problems breastfeeding in public before the internet, I have to wonder if the current issues are a result of ubiquitous internet porn generating excess stupidity about boobs.
Well sure if you do it under water
“Here’s the deal, once you’re on your second child, you pretty much have to feed them wherever the first child is, because you can’t just walk off and leave your older toddler/preschooler unsupervised.”
You get it! (Says the mother of eight!)
Yep, the Houston PD were the ones who murdered a couple in a horribly botched raid.
It's not a sexual thing at that point, it's dinner.
Busybodies need to clam up and MYOB.
Yes I do, been there, done that. Not letting the ninnies or the nannies interfere with my parenting duties.
Is it just the internet magnifying this, or are people dumber and nosier than they used to be?
Babies really can't wait.
You really can.
Just because it may be legal, doesn’t mean that it is advisable. It is perfectly legal for me to put my hands down my pants in public, but other people shouldn’t have to see it
People are indeed dumber and nosier than they used to be.
Do you object to people carrying guns in Texas and other states even though it’s legal to do so?
Just curious.
I’m in favor of allowing the manager/business owner decide issues like this-it is their bottom line, after all.
The issue would not have come up when my cub was little and unweaned-because I’d never have exposed my baby to a bunch of strangers’ germs at a public pool-and since we lived well outside of town with the river to swim in, no issue like that ever came up-my all natural/organic living mom and aunts also said chlorinated pool water was bad for the skin of pequinos, and I believed it...

I am too. But in this case it’s a public pool run by a city that is subject to Texas state law.

Mine would Sugerfoot Carswell. Sounds more like a Jazz trumpet player than a porn star
She was IN the pool feeding her child? That’s gross. May as well feed him while chilling on the toilet. There is no reason she needed to feed her child in the pool. Does she feed her older child Doritos in the pool? There is a time and a place for eating.
I think Sugarfoot Carswell sounds like a very interesting character. Could be a racehorse name, too.
But it can be done discreetly. I did.
C’mon woman, nobody wants to look at your large, pendulous, milk-engorged bre...uh, never mind.
In that case, then the law favors the mom-I don’t have a problem with her nursing in public uncovered if she doesn’t mind being stared at-but I don’t get why she would take a 10 month old baby into a public pool around all those strange people-it doesn’t sound safe or sanitary to me-I’ll take a baby around livestock without a 2nd thought, but never into a pool full of strangers...
I’ve been known to drink beer, wine, and champagne while in the pool or the hot tub.
There’s a lot of resorts with bars and restaurants that are actually built into the middle of a pool so their customers can sit in the water and eat and drink at the same time.
