So, breastfeeding in church. Okay for the Virgin Mary, but not okay for Mary Smith? My Mormon friends are all a-buzz over a mom who got in trouble for breastfeeding her baby in church services. The mom wants to remain anonymous, but her friend wrote about her story for the blog Feminist Mormon Housewives. Reportedly, the breastfeeding mom was removed from her volunteer position as a youth leader. And if she does it again? She could lose certain privileges she's worked hard to earn. Harsh! Correct me if I'm wrong here, but we're talking about a church, aren't we?![]()
