Should the vast number of new mothers and expectant ones take a page from us older (used to be) new mothers? Never, ever did we offend other people by feeding our babies in public. We always fed our children at home in the privacy of familiar surroundings and I do really object to having not only to watch but hear a child at the breast.
The other thing that gets my goat is the inordinate number of prams/pushchairs that have invaded our lovely Island. Where can one walk now without being nearly run over by these four-wheeled monsters? Which leads me on to another observation – why are the children occupying those said perambulators nearly always stuffing unsuitable substances (I can’t call it food) into their mouths, eg crisps, cakes, biscuits etc.
It’s no wonder we have a fat generation growing up.
Well, I have had my moan of the week. I do expect there will be a flurry of objections but it really is about time we older people had a say. If the younger folk don’t like it – well, that’s the way the cookie crumbles – tough! I am entitled to an opinion, aren’t I?
