Breastfeeding
I've written before about my ambivalence about and difficulty with breastfeeding. And so you can imagine the problems I have with the new breastfeeding guilt ads that everyone is talking about.

Phantom occasionally takes a break from her insightful (and often hilarious)mommymamablogging to produce some truly thoughtful social critique. If you haven't read her posts on the South Dakota abortion legislation of some months back, check them out.

Toronto has a pretty good ad campaign for breastfeeding. It is a cartoon-like drawing of a whole bunch of babies with the caption "born to be breastfed." I think they are just trying to get across that it is normal to breastfeed, without fussing around with a bunch of half-baked science or guilt trips (at l
east not overt ones, us new parents can weedle a guilt trip out of almost any message!).
