Petition update, 21 November 2008

More details from petition creator

Not all mothers can breastfeed, in a perfect world they would be able to but it is a fact of life that many cannot. The fact that we are then forced to pay extortionate prices for formula & that prices can be increased without warning or consideration for the families who are stuggling to pay for it mean that many parents are finding it harder to exist & pay the money for milk that is essential to their babies survival.

So much support is given to beastfeeding women & laws have even been passed which mean that bottle feeding mothers cannot take avantage of money off promotions & points collection for future stage 1 milk purchases because of the drive to promote breastfeeding but consessions or support are not given to the women who either can't brestfeed (and there are a lot of reasons why) or chose not to for their own personal reason. Stop this discrimination now.
