A photo of her response went viral on Facebook, sparking widespread discussions about public breastfeeding and women’s rights. Melanie’s creative approach highlighted the natural act of breastfeeding and the importance of respecting mothers’ choices. The incident remains relevant, shedding light on the ongoing debate about judgment-free breastfeeding in public spaces.
