seems like the point that is bothering popa bar aba is not so much the nursing in public, but that some of us have chosen “chumros” that he doesn’t agree with. Whether you agree or not, my ultimate “chumrah” is giving my child the best that i can (and in this case it means the healthiest food available) – if i were to see that my not wearing slits or other things is damaging to my child’s well-being, i will re-evaluate the situation.
’tis obvious that popa doesn’t belong to the “chumrah of the week” club, as the first “chumrah” taught there is not to criticize others “chumros” – you have no idea who we are, where we’re coming from, and why we choose those “chumros”
