Back when I had my tonsils removed, most doctors were recommending it for all children. Also, back then all doctors believed that if you lost brain cells, they could not be regenerated. They once believed in getting a yearly chest xray to look for lung cancer. Lots of things have changed over the years.

I'm not familiar with La Leche League. It sounds like something that would be sponsored by the Dairy Industry.
