A mother was kicked off a Delta Flight for breastfeeding her baby and not covering up.
Do you think they should of kicked her off?
Was she in the wrong?
What do you think?
I am a breast feeding mother my self and I was shocked but not supprized by this. I do not think she should of been kicked off. Now my self when I feed in public (wich is very rarely) I try to be very discreate about it.

I think that Delta overreacted. They should not have kicked her off. She was not wrong for feeding her child.
Some people say that breastfeeding mothers should go to the bathroom to feed the baby but I think that is wrong too. (Imagine eating your lunch in the bathroom).
But I think that breastfeeding mothers should be discrete. Even just using a blanket for the latching-delatching part because after that you can't see anything anyways.

Hello dear and congratulations for your baby and actions!
Well, I am a little confused! How was she breastfeeding the baby? Does she carry her baby with her at work? Even if they allow this, doesn't she get some time off to fulfill her mother's duties? Well, if they allow her to bring the child with her, there should be some care about feeding and playing time; if not officially, between the co-workers!

Actually, most places in the USA it is illegal to stop a mother from breast feeding her child.
The paper had an article that the mothers airfare was refunded, and the flight attendant was reprimanded.

I am guessing that the airline people wanted the baby to starve. That is wrong in my book. But she could have fed the baby in one of the lavs.
