A Texas Roadhouse restaurant in Louisville, Ky., has apologized to a mother who was asked by a manager to cover up while she was breastfeeding her seven-week-old daughter.
Sadie Durbin began nursing her infant daughter while she was dining at the American chain restaurant with her family, she wrote in a now-viral Facebook post, when a manager came over and told her to cover up.
“David Mitchell, a manager at the Texas Roadhouse on Shelbyville Road, brought me a napkin and tried lying it over my 7 week old nursing infant's face as he explained that he had another patron complain and that he really needed me to cover up,” Durbin wrote.
“I politely explained to him it is against the law for him to ask me to cover up and that I was well within my rights to feed my baby,” she continued.

I just did, even though you were rude in the extreme. But I’ll cut you some slack.
I still would like to know what the point you were trying to make was.
At least she didn’t change a pooped diaper on the table...
Just a whole lot of sucking going on.
Therein lies the problem, in my view. Why, oh why, do people have to resort to social media to Air their problems, slights, worries, concerns, etc....nobody frigging cares. You caused the problem deal with it. And I support her right to breastfeed, but come on....there’s an old saying I always told my kids (of six, five are girls and two are old enough to have their own kids they breastfeed in public, discreetly), “just because you can, doesn’t always mean you should”. Would it really have been too much to ask just to cover up?
She could have taken the baby out to the car to nurse, it is not the dead of summer right now!!!!
.
I’d say you and the remaining few are the attention whores.
Babies need frequent feedings.
She could have. Provided the vehicle was a comfortable place to do that for both mom and baby and time permitted. FWIW, I don’t have any problem with moms who use some discretion breastfeeding in public.
“Babies need frequent feedings.”
—
And mothers with brains do it discreetly when out in public.
.

My obvious point is that there is no valid reason for her to cover up. What she did is totally natural and beautiful.
.
What the HELL is wrong with women today they have NO SHAME, I don’t give a damn if she is feeding her baby women feel it’s OK to just whip your boob out in front of EVERYONE in a public restaurant other people’s children present GIVE ME A DAMNED BREAK!!!!
.
I fail to see anything indescrete about what she did.
There is a very important reason. We live in a society where people are free to disagree. In order to keep us from one another’s throats, we set some (generally) agreed upon rules of behavior to keep our interactions civil. Seems to me obliging a breastfeeding mom to drape when feeding her wee one in public is one of those accommodations. Baby gets fed, patrons can enjoy their meal. Ain’t civil society grand?
Try it, ed, you’ll like it.
Yeah, we know, male sexuality disgusts you.
No, breast pumps are a modern convenience that allow nursing mothers to continue feeding breast milk in a variety of situations where removing one’s top is not appropriate. No one is suggesting expressed breast in bottles is the only way to feed infants, except you, and your weak straw man.
Nonsense, I support civilization. You apparently, are enamored of stone-age Amazonians and new guineans, with top less women wandering around with toddlers latched on to their floppy breasts. How very Rousseauean of you.
The average restaurant visit is shorter than the average time between feedings.
.
So the world is to live by your irrational standards?
They are definitely not ‘generally’ agreed upon.
(and I’m betting that you were one of the clowns that went out of your way to scope girls brests while waiting for your organ to grow)
.
Probably, in the trashy restaurants you frequent!
.
Plus one
Nah Someone said its yours, But I’m sure they’re wrong. Hogs have way more class than you do. Pin worms or some other parasite that lives in large intestines would be more appropriate for your family. Oh and btw urination is a necessary and natural (or whatever drivel you spattered on this thread) process. so whenever I feel the urge I should whip it out and take a whiz? And there I go violating my own posting standards by replying to obnoxious ignorant morons
