And if in a public place, such as a restaurant, they can do that in the bathroom, in a stall. There is no reason for them to do it out in the open at their table. That is called simply having manners.
Sorry, but my hungry baby would trump you or anyone elses feelings. I would not make my baby eat in a bathroom stall.
Actually the thread is about people who simply can't stand that someone would dare ask anything of them, no matter what it was and feigning being offended as a way to silence others. Got that too? Sometimes there are two backsides on one side of the story and they want to control everything and anyone around to the point of silence.
No, actually the thread is about mocking morons who are interested in harassing women who are just trying to feed their hungry children.
Who controlled anyone? Who required and forced anyone to do anything? Did the mother cover? So the woman got offended, get over it, isnt that what you say others should do? It is only your way?
Are people not allowed to be offended? Are we not allowed to discuss this? I would hope that more people would recognize how negative comments impact breastfeeding women and decide to look the other way rather then confront.

Why should women be forced to go hide in the bathroom like they're shooting up heroin, when they are only trying to feed their children? If your uncomfortable with seeing a mother feed her hungry child, perhaps you should go eat your meal in a bathroom stall, that is called manners, buddy.
So someone makes request. What part of request is so hard to understand? Talk about people getting their panties in a bunch. What is next, crying and emotional trauma? Are people really that sensitive that a mere request invokes offense? Stay home then the world is full of human beings asking all sorts of questions and you might not like some of those questions. By all means, save everyone else the trouble of your easily offended egos and humility that causes you so much angst.
Or people could be more considerate and evaluate a situation in it's entirety before asking a stranger to change for what they are doing so that they can be made to feel more comfortable. Maybe they could first ask themselves what they could do to help make themselves feel more comfortable (look away).

Then don't be surprised by someone not enjoying seeing you breastfeed your kid at a restaurant table & to talk to management or to you yourself. It's really such a burden to have some manners & not do that at a table where people eat & can see you? Again, some people have no manners.

Expecting a mother to nurse her child in a bathroom stall is very rude. I see no reason at all why a mother who is nursing discreetly would need to leave the table to nurse. No one is forcing you to look at her.

Yep, go to the bathroom if you need to do that. I go to a restaurant to eat a meal, not to see someone else sitting next to me taking out their boob. I actually asked my female friends who have kids about this. All of them said that they did not breastfeed their kids in public. They understood it's a private matter & that others would not want to be a witness to it. They either went to a bathroom or pumped beforehand into a bottle. See? It's really not that difficult to have manners.
Hard to do when the person doing it is in your line of vision. They can go to a private place to do it. As I mentioned, all of my female friends have the ability to do it so it's not that difficult.
