THE ADVENTURES OF JONATHAN THE COMPUTER GEEK, MICHAL THE RABBINICAL STUDENT, XANDER THE MUSICAL CHEF WHO NEEDS TO "DO IT MYSELF!", AND ARI THE MASTER OF DROOL.
Excellent article...and I love her Jewish resources. Feeding a baby is not a private act..it's natural and necessary. So, isn't it a pity when society makes it shameful? Savta
LOVED finding this article. Ellen Doliner used to suggest, each Friday, that if I felt the need to nurse Lena in the sanctuary, I should at least move to the back of the room. I always felt it was most appropriate to offer my breast to my child in God's house - that a plastic bottle would be more offensive...thank you.
Chana, I so completely agree with you! In fact, for my final paper in a Talmud class last year, I actually wrote a responsa on why women should be allowed to nurse in the sanctuary. None of the reasons why not make any sense to me!

Couldn't have said it better myself.
