Bodi Kinney knew precisely what Smith was going through, as she later admitted. “I nurse my baby no matter where I am…” she stated. After all, those with children know that hunger can strike babies anytime, anywhere, from buying groceries to shopping for clothes.

“[P]eople often react negatively,” she said. “Recently, I had to leave my daughter’s school play to nurse my 8-month-old for fear of offending someone. I wanted to let this woman know in some shape or form, that she was doing the right thing,” Smith said. Meanwhile, the young mother was deeply touched by Kinney’s show of support. “Breastfeeding can make you feel so vulnerable,” she said.
