Public policy always spawns some thorny questions. Like: Should women be allowed by law to breast feed in public?
On the debit side of this question, this practice might “trigger” some “snowflakes” who will have to seek “safe spaces” with puppy dogs and clay and coloring books.

It is imperative that the next generation be fed as soon as possible.
