The advent of formula significantly decreased infant mortality rates when it was made affordable. As an adopted child, I'm grateful for it. As a mother who in spite of trying her hardest and failed to BF my own daughter, I'm grateful for it.
People like you (and worse) do make me want to kick bunnies though. It doesn't matter why someone can't or doesn't want to breastfeed. Ever. No social opporbium is appropriate when the child is nourished and well fed and cared for.
