That is all.
EDIT: Boy, did this get lively. And we have a new term here: "Mom shaming."
Interesting how all these people interpret the question in the title their own way, one that has nothing to do with this simple question, nor its intent.
Is all the formula sold for babies whose mothers can't breastfeed? No. Has baby formula been around the 150,000 years that Homo sapiens has been around? No. There's a fundamental problem here.
We humans need to be free. Free from large corporations. Free from government. If babies are dependent on large corporations and "supply chains," there is something seriously wrong.
The globalists created a fake "women's rights" movement to get women out of the home into fake careers so they could control and tax them. It is at that point that so many children stopped being breastfed. For 150,000 years it was totally normal for mothers to breastfeed their babies, then suddenly not? Seriously question this.
So then a manufactured shortage of baby formula causes complete chaos.
You are being manipulated, folks.
Some mothers physically cannot breastfeed. Is the answer to that to make those mothers dependent on corporate supply chains? Isn't there a better way to handle this? Shouldn't this be something produced on a household or local level?
Lots of the discussion below sounds like a pack of Wokes. It is based on emotion, not logical thought. Playing victim is never the answer. Finding practical, local solutions not dependent on the globalists is.
Here is a quote from the comments: "It's pretty easy for a man or non-mother woman to talk about breasts." Why does this writer assume that's who is writing this post? And "Mom shaming"?
The amount of blurglehurfing in this thread about the tiny percentage of women who can't breast feed is mind blowing. The TINY percentage, does not obviate the fact that women were designed by God to be at home taking care of their children and that includes feeding them from their own bodies.
Stop picking careers over your families.
Downvote all you want. Upvotes don't mean two squirts of rancid coyote piss to me.
Not all women who work are picking careers over family. Both I and my daughter work because first I and them she got out of abusive relationships.
We both had to work first I did to support her and she does to support my granddaughter.
We take care of each other. One income is not enough to pay the bills.
This is also the same in many lower income families.
Both parents needing to work in two parent households is also necessary.
My mom was the main breadwinner in our family because my dad wouldn't hold down a job.
She worked in the main gas station in our town first pumping gas then in the parts department and then as bookkeeper as well as working for a farmer driving tractors and combines during springs work and harvest.
Later she was a truck scaler and a road crew foreman for a construction company.. Because you know she chose career over family...
Now excuse me while I go learn to code.
...........?
you were saying how women chose careers over family, We worked because we chose our family over abusive, or incompetent men and weren't just going to jump from one relationship to another. I stayed single from when my daughter was a newborn until she graduated highschool. My daughter is raising my grandaughter with my help because my grandaughter's dad was abusive she chose to have the baby instead of an abortion but couldn't stay with the man because he beat the shit out of her even while she was pregnant. Should I go on?
No, you didn't choose family.
You all chose shitty men, which is the opposite of "choosing family". You, your mother and your daughter all chose poorly and broke the family model.
You see that right? You see that none of you chose family because you didn't choose good, stable men to form relationships with?
In God's name, why? She went her entire formative years without the balancing influence of a strong male figure in her life? Did having no father figure in her life help her pick a good man?
Now, let's try this again...
Finish this sentence... and it had better not be "My granddaughter... works because she picked a shitty man"... Right?
Because now that the last three generations of women in your family have managed to pick assholes, you can spot them a mile away and teach your granddaughter what to look out for.
Well I won't give you one but I will agree with you
