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"?
If this is in reference to the formula shortage, there are a great number of women who cannot breastfeed.
The meta has squarely shifted to the side where breastmilk is touted as superior, and it is, and it's accepted as fact. Understand the strain on those who cannot.
My son was in the NICU for 30 days. My wife's ability to breastfeed without the baby in near constant contact with her causes milk supply to plummet. It was very devastating to her.
At a glance online, I'm seeing 1 to 5 percent of women cannot breastfeed. That doesn't really seem to be the issue here. The issue is that our society, both as a whole and as individuals, are so disconnected from reality that we are not running normal families with normal practices. Out-of-control taxes and brainwashing about "careers" are part of the problem, but many many families have figured out how to deal with that.
A lot of women choose not to breastfeed, though, increasing demand for formula. I think that is the larger point.
Choose not to breast feed is another way of saying choose to work you know. Don’t pop off your opinion without any direct personal experience to help shape that opinion into something resembling reality
