Here's what you can find on this site: Surgeon General, David Satcher, M.D., Ph.D., stated, "Together we can shape a future in which mothers can feel comfortable and free to breastfeed their children without societal hindrances." "When a mother chooses to breastfeed, we also have a responsibility to protect and support her decision by providing an environment that enables her to be successful. In 1984, mothers could be cited for breastfeeding in public, but legislation in almost every state now protects the rights of mothers to breastfeed their children in public." RADM Steven
