I'm all for breastfeeding, and I could care less about the cover of some parenting magazine I've never heard of till today (hmm, publicity stunt perhaps) but I don't think this has anything to do with the baby's "rights." Breastfeeding is wonderful. So is sex. That doesn't mean I want to see either one if I'm not a participant.

But if as f8nacn says - that this mag is by subscription only - then it's DEFINITELY a publicity stunt to get their name out there.
