""Breast milk is a super form of nutrition for babies; scientists are astounded at the way nature has been able to concentrate so much good stuff in such an easily digestible form. Breast milk contains immunities, which help protect babies from disease and infection. Baby formula just can't match it. As a result, the American Academy of Pediatrics now urges moms to breast feed for "at least" a year, adding that up to three years is healthy. A public health campaign is currently underway to echo that recommendation.""

I have two children, and there's nothing I can do about this...The same way that I have control over the cockpit, she has control over the passenger area.'" ""
""The airline has disciplined the flight attendant; a spokesman, contacted by NEWSWEEK, did not dispute the Gillette family's version of the events.""
