Breast feeding is wonderful, but PLEASE keep it private. I guess I'm kind of a prude about this - one time a good friend of mine "whipped out the pump" in front of me and I was somewhat embarrassed.
I definitely think that in malls, stadiums, and other large public places, there should be a clean and comfortable lounge area in the restroom where mothers could nurse. This should be just as common as the baby changing tables. I also think if you can think ahead to have diapers, car seat, etc. you can think ahead to bring a bottle.
A 6 year old nursing - I'm sorry, but that's just disgusting, borderline child abuse if you ask me.
