ok this might be a bit off topic, but is it bichlal possible to be FFB? mommy fed you chicken for supper, and then you cried like a baby for your milk bottle, and you got it. even if you did keep all the mitzvos, you were not chayiv. there should be a new category- FAFB frum almost from birth. or how about FFBM frum from bar mitzvah. “
This IS veering slightly OT, but I am personally opposed to feeding babies and young children in this manner, even if it is not an “aveira.” If my kids ate fleishigs, they did not get milk, but rather juice, right afterwards (at least an hour later was another story). I did this for chinuch purposes, so even as small children they knew the separation of meat and milk. I get very upset when I see young parents doing what you described, giving a milk bottle right after (and sometimes WITH)a meat meal. BTW, this does NOT apply to breastfeeding, even if the milk is expressed into a bottle for the baby, as mother’s milk is considered pareve, which I was very surprised to learn.
