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.
See how drone technology is being used to ensure a brighter future for you and your environment.

First time I ever saw a woman breastfeeding, it was in a courthouse and she was a good lookin momma.
I’ve been hooked ever since.
“I’m old-fashioned so I say leave and use the restroom”
...so you would take an infant into a public toilet and feed it? That is as insane as whipping out your boob and feeding it in public!
...but having spent a number of my formative years in third world countries in Southeast Asia I’ve seen a lot of breastfeeding in public and it really doesn’t bother me. In fact, I find it kind of natural and it’s kind of like going to a nude beach on Martinique, after 10 minutes it doesn’t bother - you get over it...
Of everyone involved, Miss Floppyboobs was the most offended.
Shades of National Geographic.
No. The superiority of breastfeeding is universally understood in our society. Im not going to justify the law of identity to someone emotionally invested in denying it.
Mocking your sophistry is quite sufficient for me.
Agreed. Or letting one go (a fart) is a normal bodily function that probably shouldn’t be done at the dinner table too.
Just sayin...
You are a better person than I am.

Been to and participated at the nude beach in Martinique. But that’s not a family restaurant. How’s the husband feel about his wife naked from waist up at table. You have the right good it doesn’t mean one can not be a wee bit considerate of others
Either a tit is a private part or it is not.
If it isnt, then the guy who touches it is doing nothing worse than touching your shoulder.
If it is, then you have to cover it, babe.
One more stop on the train ride to being a Third World country.
It actually is life, from one generation to the other. However aspects of it are personal....breast feeding is one of them that should not be “exhibited” to an uninterested audience.
As I see it there are no boundaries with the generation today...everything is about “exhibitionism’ today and every part of their life. They don’t get it that nobody’s interested.
and using the bottle pretty much destroys the mother/baby bond that is supposed to be the main reason to encourage nursing a young baby....
maybe men can stop scratching their privates in public and “adjusting” themselves in public......geesh
I think having to go to the restroom is unreasonable. Restrooms stink, there are often chemicals in the air and you wouldnt want to be in their 20 minutes with a young baby.
On the other hand, many women’s restrooms have waiting areas outside. If those can’t be kept clean and odorless, then it’s too much to ask someone remain there.
It seems lost on many here but most women Ive known were aroused through their breasts
Second only to the man in the boat sensitivity wise though nipple sensitivity fades some after multiple child births
Breasts have to be caressed not just ogled at or milked
One mans opinion
I have witnessed a woman O simply through breast stimulation in my long years
This notion by some here....not you....that breasts are just humanoid udders is weird
Does this make me parochial..lol
I had a bad thing happen to me as a young kid. I carried it around with me for a long time, but when I got a chance to see the person face to face again some 30 years later on the other side of the world...well...I couldn’t feel hate for him. He was pathetic and wretched, and all I could think was that I was glad I wasn’t him.
I found the concept of giving up the grudge is liberating in a way few things are. And so it was with my sister.
And I am not much of a Christian, but...I want to be. And nothing I have done in my life has better made me understand what it is I strive to be a Christian than those two things. There is something to the power of forgiveness.
Put very realistically. If that makes you parochial for that view, then you have a lot of company.
It is a fine thing to appreciate the beauty of a woman in her entirety without making her an object of coarse and simple lust...it is why we strive to be men, and not simply fall to being beasts.
Dumbass. No one is suggesting she must ONLY feed from a bottle, except you.
