Tonight, DH, DD and i met my oldest friend at New Seasons (a local HFS) to go shopping and socialize as she is leaving for Maryland on Thurday.
Everything went well. She forgot her sling, I forgot my sling, so when he woke from his nap his daddy carried him around.
after she payed her DH took their DS to be changed in the bathroom and DD, myself and she sat down at one of the tables they have in their seating/eating area to wait for my DH who was paying for our groceries, and her DH who was changing their son.
her DH and DS get back from being changed. he needs to nurse, her DS not DH.
so she proceeds to nurse him.
the CUSTOMER SERVICE MANAGER comes over QUICKLY and says to either her DH or myself, unsure which as his eyes were darting around and her DH and i were sitting next to eachother "can you ask her to move that over there where people cant see?" i say "move what over where, and why?" he says, "well she is doing... THAT, and i just, customers.. and.. i..." and starts stammering because he is now looking at my face and seeing just how pissed off i am. i say "by law you cannot ask her to move, or cover up. by law you are doing something VERY illegal. it is her right, her legal right to nurse her child. to FEED her child wherever she and her child are legally allowed to be. she is a customer here, so she is legally allowed to be here, so is her child, so they are legally allowed to nurse here."
he says "oh i KNOW the law, and if my customers complain..." i broke in "no. whether customers complain or not. you are being illegal to ask her to move or cover up. a nicer thing would be to get her a drink of water. you now need to leave her alone. you have NO clue what kind of can of worms you have opened up."
he huffed away.
i was FUMING.
he went and talked to my DH.
told him to come let me know whats right and wrong, and "she tried to tell me i dont know what the law is, i KNOW what the law is. you need to go tell your woman whats right" WTF?! like he needs to shut his little lady up?!
so DH came over and told me what the man said.
the man whose name tag said CUSTOMER SERVICE MANAGER!!!!! great customer service.
so letters need to be written. i will be writting one for SURE.
i would also like to plan a nurse in. SOON.
