Being a United Methodist minister I've gotten pretty used to hearing old people's opinions. I do a lot of listening... it's just part of the work. I'm not often given an opportunity to share my opinions (except in sermons, where I share liberally).
A few months back, I saw an old guy in the church roll his eyes when a mother began to breastfeed her child during the worship service. The mother noticed too. And we wonder why young people aren't interested in being around much?
Since the weather has gotten pretty, I've been taking Lily to the park, and every day, there is at least one parent or grandparent smoking next to the playground. Why is it considered acceptable in Alabama to poison children with smoke (or infant formula), but unacceptable for a kid to eat what a kid is designed to eat?
I'm not humble enough to think I've got it backwards this time. Maybe this preacher just feels like preaching!
