Recently, I encountered a vast lack of sensitivity and understanding from the owners and operators of public and private facilities. How is a mother supposed to go and do if she is barred from entering?
In what way? you ask.
By plastering signage at every entrance prohibiting food and drink. What am I, as a nursing mother, save my child's food and drink? Does this preclude me and those like me from attending or visiting as others do?
Add your voice to the cause.
Now that you mention it, the Little Princess has found some rather creative places to need a bite, to include:
- Home, in every room in the house, save the master bath and the closet
- The birthing center where she was born
- A bench at the Botanical Gardens
- The shower
- The stationary car. Several parking lots have become quite fine eateries, and also several rest areas.
- The moving car...with someone else driving, of course.
- Several thousand feet up in an airplane
- Every other moment at church
- Our church Easter activity
- Her doctor's office
- My doctor's office
- A stall in the grocery store bathroom, as well as one at the Renaissance Fair
- The dentist's chair
- A bookstore
- During bookclub
- The home of friends and family
- A restaurant booth
- Daddy's desk at work
Quite the list.
