UAE breastfeeding Law
A new law passed in the UAE now requires women to breastfeed their kids for at least 2 years. The law also states that men can sue their wives if they refuse. If a woman for medical reasons is unable to breastfeed, then a wet nurse would be provided. I can't even begin to start with this one. Its hard enough to breastfeed then to make it mandatory, even punishable if a woman decides not to. Na wa oh. Then other questions arise like; who is this wet nurse, do i have a choice or must I take the one offered, who pays this nurse, does she express and give the baby or is she required to pop her boob into my child's mouth, will she be required to live in my house for this 2 year period and who decides a woman is medically unable to breastfeed.... I'd like to know what you people think.Personally if I lived in the UAE, I think I might just run. Please feel free to drop your comments below...... P.S While we are on the topic of breastfeeding, please what's...
