The document discusses arguments for why breastfeeding in public should remain private or covered. It notes that exposing breasts in public can make others uncomfortable, and can lead young children to ask questions parents may not be ready to address. While breastfeeding is natural and important for babies, doing so uncovered in places like restaurants or amusement parks is inappropriate. Mothers should use covers or pumps to feed discreetly in public and avoid making others witness a stranger's exposed breasts.

No Breastfeeding In Public
By: Jessica Simmance
•Slide 1: Breast feeding in public without a cover up not only affects the minds of our young children but satisfies the perverts that walk
around public areas.

2. No
Coverup
No
Breastfeeding
•Slide 2: A woman breast feeding her baby in the lobby of a hotel/waterpark and not being covered up is disturbing and should be illegal
when small children are present.

•Slide 3: The Big Idea (pages 78-79) If we do not keep what is private, private our children will be asking questions we may not be ready
to discuss with them at a young age.

ready for
sex education?

•. Not everyone wants their children to know of things such as breastfeeding. We should not be teaching our children how to reproduce at
such young ages.

•I do agree the breastfeeding is the best way to go but I do not agree that showing your privates in public places is appropriate, even if
you are feeding your baby. I can name many things in life a natural for humans to do but are illegal to do in public. If a mother wants to
breastfeed she needs to keep all skin covered if she is in a public setting.

Breast
Is
Best
BUT
Not
In
Public
•We can stop the questions our toddlers are asking when they see a bare breast in the middle of an amusement park. We can keep the
intimacy of mother and baby in a private setting. We can raise awareness to other mothers that we agree breastfeeding is the best but
shall remain covered so small children do not ask questions.

7. 3 Main reasons
Breastfeeding should stay
private
• A cover up was made for a woman to breastfeed on the go. Cover up is the key word so please keep them covered. 2. Our children after 3 years old should not
have to witness a strange women and her breast in a public area such as a restaurant, amusement park, etc. 3. Pumps were made for mothers who are on the go
as well. If you know you are going to a public setting pump and use the bottle. Keep your intimate time with your baby intimate.

8. Cover Up!!!!

• Making cover ups easily accessible to mothers in need of them. If cover-ups were giving away as a part of a gift from the hospital or even given free from mothers who
receive free diapers and other things easily accessible to mothers who need assistance.
•Making sure to stay clear of small children or keep you and baby extra covered so parents don’t have to explain to their children what is going on.

10. “I am breastfeeding my baby now”
-Anne Pugliese
• example of a woman who felt extremely uncomfortable having see a woman’s full bare breast at a convenient store because the mother breastfeeding did not have a
cover up on. according to Anne Pugliese In some situations, a blanket or coverup acts like a flag that says, "I am breastfeeding my baby now."

•Our Children after 3 years old should not have to witness a stranger breastfeeding in public areas

12. Are our children old enough
?
• A toddler nor a pre teen should be allowed to see a bare breasted woman. A young man should not know what a woman’s private parts look like until he is old enough to understand the functions of each part, including his own.

• We do not allow our children to see rated R movies when they are in their pre teens, movies that show bare breasted women, so why is it ok for mothers to breastfeed
uncovered in front of them?

•Pumps were made for mothers who breastfeed to do so in a public place without exposing their privates.

• If we give free pumps and bottles to new mothers in need we can prevent public breastfeeding as well. As an intimate connection a mother should not feel it is ok to
be exposed fully in a public area. If pumps were also easily accessible like cover-ups women wont feel the need to fight against breastfeeding in public.

16. All of the challenges of offering human milk in a
bottle while in a public place can be overcome.

-Anne Purgliese
•Show examples of the many women who pump and enjoy it. Explain the benefits of pumping and women who prefer it in public.
According to Anne Purgliese All of the challenges of offering human milk in a bottle while in a public place can be overcome.

17. Intimacy
•Make woman aware that exposing themselves in public without being covered up is causing pre teens to be curious. What is intimate in a
woman’s life should remain intimate.

Moments like this
are
your eyes only
•With a cover-up a mother and child could have their intimate moment in a public area without causing pre teens to ask questions and be
curious. Pumping also has its benefits and gives the same nutrients as breastfeeding.

19. If
It’s
A
Strange
Place
Your
Privates
Should
Be
Covered
•Breastfeeding should only be allowed in a public area if the mother and child are fully covered up.

• If a mother does not allow her pre teen or toddler to see a bare breast on a movie or television than what gives a mother breastfeeding the right to expose their bare
breast in a public area? Woman are very strong and powerful but we have to educate our children and teach them what is right indoors and outdoors and exposing your
privates is not ok.
