Isn't the idea behind such a show to educate people? Or is it to deepen ignorance?
This is very disappointing....

I think the ministry of health should be part of this petition, if a program aims at discouraging taking care of a baby's health in public!

Breastfeeding not only allows for societies to be healthier, but also smarter! See link below to 2015 study in Brazil
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/health-31925449
"The research in Brazil traced nearly 3,500 babies, from all walks of life, and found those who had been breastfed for longer went on to score higher on IQ tests as adults."

I breastfeed anywhere anytime my son demands, I care for my baby's well being more than any other person\thing in this world. Any one who has no clue about breast feeding can't jump on a screen and tell me what to do in this regard. Not my problem, not my son's obviously, that others made different choices, I respect that and I don't call other women to breast feed in public if they are not happy to do it. So, I expect the same respect in return. It is a matter of choices in the end. And if breasts were so offensive, women on your screen should cover them up. You see in the end of the day, breasts were naturally made to breastfeed not to be shown in the context of seduction, no?

Spouse to the former Police Atraché of the Spanish Embassy of Lebanon, who breastfed at many official events with high ranked guests and never had to listen to insulting comments like mentioned during the show.

I so much agree, etiquette has nothing to do with refraining from breastfeeding!!!! I think this campaign was done in favor of a formula producing co! Enno walaw?

I will breastfeed anywhere and anytime my child wishes to and I do not allow this ignorant fake woman to refer to me breastfeeding my child as hayda el shi. Breastfeeding is natural and beautiful

Breastfeeding is a natural, beautiful, NECESSARY act that nourishes the children of Lebanon and every other country around the world. Shame on those who would wish to hide it!

Breastfeeding in public is a normal thing just like eating and drinking in public. It should be promoted and not criticized. When you see a cat feeding her kittens, it is cute or a dog its puppies, why is it not normal to see a mother breastfeeding her babies. In the past, in Lebanon, they had mothers breastfeeding each others babies. Boobs are created to feed babies and not for flaunting on billboards for lingerie ads.

I am shocked that you saw such advice as acceptable.
