Breastfeeding Controversy 2015: New Pic Of Mom’s Struggle With Baby Goes Viral [PHOTO, VIDEO]
It looks like the world is slowly but surely changing its perception of breastfeeding and how mothers shouldn't feel ashamed while feeding their babies in public. A new photo of a mom struggling to breastfeed her baby in a public bathroom stall is going viral, as it also depicts a man struggling to eat his plate full of pasta in the stall nearby.
Ashton Kutcher Says Mila Kunis Is 'The Greatest Mom'
Photographer and mother-of-two Tamar Shugert took the photo, which has so far gone viral on social media outlets this week. She captioned the photo with, "My baby eating is not a gross side-effect of having children. If you are not willing to eat your lunch in the bathroom, then don't expect me to feed my kid there!"
"While I've never personally been asked to 'go to the bathroom' to breastfeed - not that I would if I was asked - I have heard from friends of mine that this has happened to them," Shugert told Yahoo Parenting. "And seeing how I am pregnant, I guess this topic is on my mind."

Shughert isn't the only parent having an issue with public bathrooms these days. Just yesterday, celebrity parent and actor Ashton Kutcher made a plea to see more diaper changing stations in men's public bathrooms.
According to USA Today on Wednesday, Kutcher took to his Facebook account to make the complaint. He and partner Mila Kunis welcomed their daughter Wyatt back in October.
He wrote, "There are NEVER diaper changing stations in men's public restrooms. The first public men's room that I go into that has one gets a free shout out on my FB page! #BeTheChange."
