Still chuckling. As a breast feeding mom who grew up in Africa...and traveled with my babies, would he rather a screaming baby or a well placed napkin? Great little story. Esther

Oh, radical! Don't mess with Momma Bear! Even Papa best back off. (LOL) Now this was a fun read. I wanted to smack him from the start. "Don't you hiss at ME!" LOL.
Great entry for this contest. Good luck!

Comment from Madeleine Mardis
Joann, this is a really descriptive post, I can just see it in my mind, like a scene from a movie! You made it palpable, the man's disapproval, and the mother's devotion! Also, it's so cute, the image of menus making a privacy fort! Maddy

Comment from Pearl Edwards
This was a good flash fiction and she certainly had a good message to share with all those around including her partner. If he hadn't made a scene would anyone have really noticed. Good writing joann

Comment from Karen Cherry Threadgill
I remember the looks. I breastfed my second child for seven months. He has always been extremely healthy. I found ways to not draw attention to myself,
If I wasn't eating, I guarantee my husband wouldn't be. :-) Karen

I'd read it with no points. I read one for one. Sure points are nice, but friends are better.

Comment from EeanBlack
lol. Feeding a baby in public probably wasn't a problem for the Neanderthals. I sometimes wish we weren't so advanced, so cultured. People are so afraid just to live. Was she hypersensitive or just trying to embarrass the guy? I can actually see the look on his face.

I hope I didn?t sound insensitive myself, I just remember how strange it was for me when my sister breast fed her baby in public.

Comment from Liz O'Neill
To begin with his strange behavior trying to hide her drew attentions to them I'm sure. I'm probably people were hearing them kissing to each other back and forth. You made it seem like she was just being a bit promiscuous. That's good because that's the way some people feel or think about breastfeeding. Of course most of all of them were breastfed in secret. A good topic.

Comment from Spitfire
I chuckled at the last line and wish you well in the contest. Great title. One nit: "I'm am not.
should be 'I am not.' Good use of active verbs as in 'clicked her tongue' and 'whipped the napkin off.'
