Breastfeeding in the Back of the Bus

By Zenparenting1 @ZenParenting1
This will be a short one, I promise. It's really quite simple.
Breastfeeding in the Back of the Bus(Here you have a nursing room so special and thoughtful toward mom and babe that it cannot even be brought to show, oh, I don't know, a breastfeeding mom and babe. Still applauding?)
I see post after post lauding this or that store, stadium, office building, etc. for having a special breastfeeding place set aside for mothers and babes. I find myself furrowing my brow with every standing ovation. Why does everyone applaud "nursing rooms" and "nursing corners"? I don't get it. Every room, any nook, any and every place my son is hungry is a breastfeeding spot. I will not be relegated to some "special" area out of the way simply because it has a ruffly little chair and a cute pink sign. Dress up the back of the bus all you want, it's still the back of the bus.
I, for one, refuse to breastfeed in the back of the bus.
