It happened during Lucy’s Sabbath School class last Saturday. I was having fun watching my little girl walking up to the front during the various songs when I looked over and saw the woman sitting next to me with her shirt pulled up and her breast hanging out.

Now, I have no problem seeing women breastfeeding in public, but how about being a little discreet about it? When I’m at the mall letting Lucy burn off energy in the soft play area, I always see moms nursing but they use a cover. And, there’s nothing wrong with a mother breastfeeding in the mother’s room at church even without a cover.

But, in a children’s Sabbath School class with a group of children and husbands? It makes me feel awkward. I couldn’t even look at Joe when I walked up front with Lucy during one of the songs because I didn’t want to look at this woman’s chest. I know it made Joe uncomfortable, and I can only imagine the other dads felt the same.

I just hope that Sabbath School in the future will not be as uncomfortable.
