Not sure of the stats but being a Mother that has bf all her children until about 1-2 yrs of life that A Bf'ing mum in public with her baby will often need to be bfeed her child.
We can not determine a baby's need to feed at a set schedule always, so legal n social rules about indecent exposure and need to be lifted.. Many laws around the world make public Breastfeeding legal and dis allow companies from prohibiting it in the workplace,parks,restaurants, etc so on but the action or reactions of some ppl to the sight of breastfeeding can make things uncomfortable for those around.. So some bf mum's feel reluctant to bf in public. For the fear of the legality or concerned over others reactions or fear of violate indecent exposure law.

But yet many woman walk around today with exposing there bosoms to the world and never get a find for indecent exposure.

When Breastfeeding is very much a natural act of feeding their child..

So in turn feel this petition is good one to view and even consider looking into and just might sign for a good natural act between a Mother and Child
