This was on the cover of a magazine, and I saw a story about it on CNN. I was curious about what everyone thinks.

Now, Is this an appropriate cover? I don't know. Yes, it's natural and normal and wonderful. 
Do I want to see it? No.

I don't have children, and when I do, I'm not sure if I will breast feed or not.  That decision remains open. So I am far from being entitled to tell people what to do, and am probably not qualified to give my opinion, but this my page, so here it is. I think women have the right to breast feed whenever, and I agree that it is natural and that the kid needs to eat. However, I feel some things are personal and should be kept as such. Isn't that kind of bonding with the child highly personal? At the very least, get a blanket. I do not want to see your boob while I am eating pizza in the mall food court. When I have children, I may change my tune, but I just don't ever see myself doing this in a highly public area. It's my boob, and you don't get to see it.

Anyhow, I can bet that when a 14-year-old boy looks at this cover he does not even notice that there is a baby in photo.
