Flash Mob of breast feeding parents banned from doing in public mall


In the article Somerset collection squashes breast feeding 'Flash Mob.' 11 moms are protesting that they should be able to breast feed in a public malls. Napoli from St Clare shore organized and event in which 11 moms meet at a mall and started to breast feed until a security guard stopped her and said we do not have flash mobs and breast feeding in public. The nudity law does not apply to breast feeding public she feels as though feeding your child a meal is offensive to the public. Michigan is one of the 45 states that allow breast feeding in public and private places. The spokesperson for Somerset said on Sunday that the mall doesn't allow breast feeding and mobs because that is private place. I think that they shouldn't be able to breast feed in public places especially if your child is over age of 1 years old. Usually breast feed and the child is small enough to cover up and nobody is able to see so most of the time it doesn't get reported and people won’t get offended. Also you do have a choose to put that child on the bottle and you do get some nutrients from the breast milk but that child needs to develop independence instead of latching to their mother for a long period of time. These are being inconsiderate to other people in the mall and they need to think about other people around them and about their child in general.
