I do think these choices have benefits, but I also think they may not be actual choices. If you work two jobs, what choice do you have? But you know, we also choose things for convenience or preference, knowing it's not the best for us - fast food, processed food, etc. Formula IS NOT as good as breast milk. You know this and I know this. Choosing it doesn't make anyone a bad person or mother.

And seriously, read this book if you think I'm exaggerating. I don't think that women in developed countries know what they're getting into. It's not because they're stupid- it's because many are illiterate or undereducated and believe the PAID sponsored health professionals who tell them it's good for their baby.
