Agreed. I’d never do that myself.

The greater issue to me with this is the police and the city staff inventing and enforcing a law that doesn’t exist.

If you want to breast feed in public please let the other boob out so we can have an unobstructed view.
Thanking you in advance

Do you dip your glass in the pool water first!

Which means there are places that exist where she isnt “authorized” to be.

Not every place should be a breastfeeding space.

Kiddie pools are gross. Babies poop and pee in pools. Toddlers poop and pee in pools.

Don’t take your teats out in a public place.

She of course shouldn’t have been expelled if what she was doing was legal.

But people shouldn’t always do what’s legal and IMO this is one of those times.

Public pools are family environments, and nursing moms shouldn’t take it upon themselves to demonstrate adult female anatomy to perhaps otherwise sheltered kids.

You have just described the standard facts of life in mothering young children. If we let that stop us from mothering them, human life would cease.

the “original” outrage over breastfeeding mothers was just a prank by the late Alan Abel (who also was behind SINA demanding the JFK clothe his animals “A nude horse is a rude horse”).

It was a perennial prank of his.

He’d been pranking the media since the 1950s up until his death recently.

Take it up with the Texas legislature.

“But people shouldn’t always do what’s legal...”

Agreed. But if it’s legal and a recognized civil right then it’s not the business of the city staff or the police to tell someone they can’t do something that is explicitly legal.

Like carrying an AR-15 in public.

It’s legal in Texas and while some people might get alarmed by it the police have no business interfering with anyone who is legally carrying.

I’ve “mothered” ten babies, and I never had a need to demonstrate my mothering skills in a public pool because that would be unsanitary.

I’d rather just voice my opinion about it right here.

La ti da, that doesn’t make you the arbiter of the needs of other women’s babies or of their mothering skills.

It just makes you a judgmental (insert preferred noun here).
