When Security Guards Harassed 1 Breastfeeding Mom, She Didn’t Move - but She Did Hit Record
As an experienced mom of two, Ashley Cooper knows her rights and isn't going to let anyone intimidate her or keep her from breastfeeding when her baby is hungry, even if she happens to be in public. However, security guards at her local mall tested this Virginia mom's strength when they tried to stop her from discreetly nursing her 8-month-old baby on a bench. Instead of letting them win, Ashley maintained her composure and began streaming the encounter on Facebook Live, even after shocked witnesses came over to show their support.
The incident occurred when Ashley and her husband took their two kids to the Short Pump Town Center mall in Richmond, VA. When her infant began to fuss, Ashley's husband remained in line with their 3-year-old while she found a corner with a bench to nurse her baby. According to Ashley, the security guards approached as soon as she started breastfeeding and told her that she wasn't allowed to do that there. Ashley quickly stood her ground and explained, "In the state of Virginia, I can breastfeed anywhere I'm legally allowed to be." We applaud Ashley for staying strong and for her quick thinking to document the encounter!
