Should I feel weird about my sister-in-law breastfeeding when my kids are there visiting?

Please , just dont.

This is a great opportunity for you to teach your young men about so many things : how to deal with awkward and uncomfortable situations , how to be a polite guest in others homes , how people make different choices than we make Nd last but not Least, about breastfeeding and the purpose of breasts

You are very naive. Those boys are at the age of puberty and they will be masturbating. Aunty is giving them the equivalent of a titty show that will only turn them on, not teach them.

Wow. The absolute most moronic thing I've read on DCUM EVER. Go to Hell, PP

If it's bothersome to you, OP, don't let your sons go over to her house. Yes, HER HOUSE, where she is free to feed her child as GOD intended. LOL, that was for the masturbation freak poster!

Oh no! NOT masturbation! They'll go blind!

FFS.

Grow up and teach your kids what breasts are for.

Your kids are seeing something valuable and important.

I'm an incredible prude. I still see nothing wrong with your kids witnessing a nursing mom. In fact, she's being a great role model for them.

I agree w/ a PP. Not appropriate in front of pre- teen and teen boys WITHOUT a coverup. Nobody is asking her to "starve her kids" here .... Just be respectful if pubescent boys .

+1000 It is inappropriate. At that age it is probably considered to be more sexual than maternal.

She is in her OWN HOME. If pubescent boys can't handle it they shouldn't be there. It isn't the aunt who needs to be respectful, it's the teenaged boys.

Have you ever seen a woman nurse? Usually you don't even see anything. Covering just invites questions, nursing looks like you're holding a sleeping baby.

Teach them respect. This is their aunt, feeding her infant. Respect.

I have a 13 year old son. I would not expect a nursing mom in her own home to cover because he's there. If anything, he can feel free to leave the room.

And people wonder why some boys grow up feeling entitled to women, or with misogynistic attitudes. Not saying that OP's sons are going to grow up to be rapists or abusers, but if you don't teach boys to respect women, especially women in their OWN HOMES, feeding their children, then how the hell do you expect them to grow up with a mature and responsible attitude about women?

OP, you have a teachable moment here. And yes, you should feel weird about feeling weird about your SIL feeding her child.

She's in her OWN HOUSE. Have the ignoramuses here glossed over that fact?
