“Throwback to the time BREASTFEEDING got me out of a City of Chicago parking ticket!!
.
.
.
I was in the car with a screaming hungry baby and had to pull over and park (we have all been there mamas), but I hadn’t paid for parking because MY MAIN CONCERN was feeding my baby.
.
.
Well, the parking meter guy was doing his rounds and saw my car parked without a parking sticker and started to take pictures of my car. So I rolled my window down and explained to him that I understood he was just doing his JOB, but that I also was doing mine 🙃 which was to feed my baby.
.
.
To my surprise, he was totally understanding. And ended up ripping up the ticket. But before doing so, I asked him to take a picture with me! I wish I remembered his name, because I told him he would become IG famous! Hahaha
.
.
I have never felt so empowered from breastfeeding in my life! To stand up to a MALE officer and explain something that most WOMEN may feel shy or embarrassed about and have him be so understanding?! This I had to share!!
I applaud this man and I hope you do too!!!! 🙌👏👏👏”
