You act as though I'm offended by it, I'm not. I've said that repeatedly. As per the towel/blanket idea, there is just some common courtesy to the whole deal.

And for the record, it isn't something that MUST be done. There are options, some people just prefer not to use those options. I was the only breastfed child in my family, and I will say that I am the closest to my mother which is possibly an effect of that bonding. I personally prefer breastfeeding to bottle feeding from a psychological perspective. That being said, as I have repeatedly said, there is just some common courtesy to doing it.
