Tonight's Dr. Drew on HLN made me think of the Time Cover and this thread.
A woman was arrested for breast feeding her son when she was on (medical) marijuana. Women are calling and talking about how they use drugs and how it affected their children. One woman had the nerve to say "I have used drugs for years and it never impacted my kids...this woman made the mistake of breastfeeding while on marijuana."
The woman who was arrested is on Dr. Drew now. She is breastfeeding while on the show. Dr. Drew said "you're breastfeeding now...I need to make sure you are not also using marijuana." She said something to the effect of "yeah I am breastfeeding" and Dr. Drew responded with "yeah...but are you using marijuana? I need to know...."
Breastfeeding is what it is but I really do not want to see it when I am not expecting to see it. It's just like many body parts and actions that are NOT inherently BAD but they also don't need to be "forced" upon us.
