Family Forum / Pregnancy / Breastfeeding / March 2006Reply to everyone who responded: to I am looking for an opinion and information
I am a Journalism student at San Jose State. I am doing a reasearch on breastfeeding. Thanks to everyone who responded. I am not against babies. I am not againtst babies being breastfed in public places. I am just doing reasearch. Your answers do not eliminate my responsability of doing homework. It is just help. I respect everyone!!! > I am a Journalism student at San Jose State. I am doing a reasearch on > breastfeeding. Thanks to everyone who responded. I am not against > babies.

Here's a free tip: None of your professors are going to think that "I asked a bunch of people on MKB," is a valid source. You need to get one of those old fashioned things called a BOOK. Here are books that will answer your every question. I'm sure the local public library will have many of them: _So That's What They're For_ by Janet Tamaro _The Womanly Art of Breastfeeding_ by the La Leche League _The Breastfeeding Book_ by Martha and William Sears _Breastfeeding: A Guide for the Medical Profession_ by Ruth and Robert Lawerence If you MUST use an online source, which I think is totally cheap, but then again, I used to telnet into my e-mail account, so I'm an old timer by your standards, try the following: www.lalecheleauge.org www.breastfeeding.com www.kellymom.com But asking a bunch of random people with no verifiable qualifications in a newsgroup does not equal "research." It equals "too lazy to do my own damn homework," and that's annoying. If you want to take a poll, why not find real, in person, flesh and blood breastfeeding moms in San Jose?

You need to get one of those old [quoted text clipped - 8 lines] > _Breastfeeding: A Guide for the Medical Profession_ by Ruth and Robert > Lawerence Useful advice, Amy. Don't forget my favorite: _The Nursing Mother's Companion_ by Kathleen Huggins -Patty, mom of 1+2 Can we give this young lady a break please? I have studied journalism, and was indeed a journalism student at one time. (Pre-internet). And yes, asking people their opinion on topics is an entirely legitimate tool for journalists. And one handy thing about the internet is that it makes it possible for her to reach a wide range of people with a wide range of opinions. If, instead of posting her question here, she had gone to a LLL meeting and asked them questions in person, would you consider that wrong? There are many types of papers that college students write, and many types of research. Naomi npardue@indiana.edu skrev: > Can we give this young lady a break please?

Tine, Denmark ><snip> Your answers do not eliminate my responsability > of doing homework. <snip> This is clear. I would assume you have a deadline for your paper. I would also assume that you should probably do some real research, rather than waste time. Surely you don't plan to copy any replies and quote the context as being from MKB group, and put that this 'researched' information comes from the online name of, "BreastfeedingMama" or whatever... Just insert random name here. |
