I learned proper handwashing from my kindergarten teacher or mother, I'm sure. This isn't knowledge that anyone with half a brain needs in order to keep their babies safe. Breastmilk wouldn't be contaminated...the outside sources would be. Bottom line.

How about a woman who adopts. Technically, she could induce breastmilk, but should she feel pressured to do it? FF moms get a lot of flak and so do BF moms. I have been BOTH and still somehow. my kids are alive/well and not contaminated. I have always maintained sanitary techniques whether physically putting to my breast, pumping or bottlefeeding.

Who doesn't? I'm confused as to what you are debating here? She said it was good to at least try to breastfeed and recognizes reasons why people don't.
You are beating a dead horse because everyone sees there are women that can't for whatever reason. Can't and Won't are two different things. One is a choice and one isn't.
