Breastfeeding is a natural and beautiful process that helps create intimacy and bonding between the mom and her bundle of joy.
Feeding babies whenever and wherever they are hungry is something mom’s shouldn’t feel bad about, but sadly, there are people out there who give them a hard time as they believe feeding babies in public is not appropriate or acceptable if they don’t use a cover.
Back in 2018, Melanie Dudley, a mom of a 3-month-old baby, was at a restaurant with her family and some friends when the little one started crying for food. Without hesitation, Melanie, who is from Texas, started breastfeeding her son. And although everyone was fine with that, it looked like a stranger who was sitting on the next table was uncomfortable with this mom not being covered while breastfeeding.
He approached Melanie and asked her to cover up. And well, she did just that, but in a manner that stranger expected.
”I was on vacation in Cabo San Lucas with my entire family, and a man asked me to cover myself. I’m usually discreet but we were seated in the back of the restaurant,” Melanie told Yahoo.
“I did have the cover on, but it was so hot. It was like, 95 degrees, and my little baby was sweating,” the Texan told TODAY.
“I said, ‘You know what? I’m on vacation, I’m taking this off.’”
Melanie took the cover and put it on her head instead, having the entire restaurant bursting out in laughter.
”I just put it over my head. I don’t know why. It wasn’t like a salacious fight or anything. That was just my response. I had no words, so I thought, I’ll just cover my head instead,” the woman explained.
A woman who witnessed the entire thing, Carol Lockwood, took a photo of Melanie and shared it online with the caption, “I’ve never met her, but I think she’s AWESOME!!! (Please share! With permission, I’ve made this post public — I’m SO over people shaming women for nursing!!!” In no time, the photo was shared 225,000 times and counting.
A great number of people stood my Melanie’s side and supported what she did.
We truly believe that breastfeeding is the most normal thing and no mom should feel ashamed for giving food to her baby in public.

“KEANU REEVES STANDS FIRM: REFUSES TO PRESENT WHOOPI GOLDBERG’S LIFETIME ACHIEVEMENT AWARD AMID HOLLYWOOD CONTROVERSY”
In a dramatic twist, Keanu Reeves, the revered icon of Hollywood, has made a surprising decision to refuse the honor of presenting Whoopi Goldberg’s Lifetime Achievement Award. Reeves, celebrated for his unwavering integrity, cited profound reservations about Goldberg’s character, indicating a departure from his typically affable demeanor.
Initially, the TV Production Committee had eagerly selected Reeves for the prestigious role, a choice he had eagerly embraced. However, upon discovering that he would share the stage with Goldberg, Reeves promptly retracted his acceptance, expressing his reluctance to be associated with what he deemed an unfavorable situation, stating: “I refuse to be linked with such a misstep”.
In an uncommon display of solidarity, other notable figures such as Justin Timberlake, Wynona Ryder, and Gloria Estefan have followed suit, declining the opportunity in support. The quest for alternative presenters persists, with speculation swirling around the whereabouts of Jackie and Kelso, who have evaded detection thus far.
Amidst the frenzied chatter of Hollywood’s inner circles, a search party under the command of Ravine Captain Joe Barron scours for the elusive pair. Some conjecture they may have metaphorically stumbled into the depths of social media disgrace, while others propose a more subdued retreat. Nevertheless, the consensus remains that their professional fortunes have reached a nadir.
Reeves, unwavering in his resolve, remains steadfast in his decision, steadfastly refusing to reconsider despite the unfolding drama. As the narrative takes unexpected detours, one certainty prevails, Keanu Reeves stands unwavering amidst the tempest of Hollywood controversy.
