How would it do them bad? There are many cultures in the world where kids see breastfeeding.

I've been open and am astounded by what I've learned on here about nudity and sexualization of the body. I believe, now, that if the breasts weren't sexualized like they are in America, that maybe, a child seeing a nursing mom or even the breasts exposed, is not a bad thing.

But growing up in the American culture and even being taught (very little) as a Christian, there are some parts that are sacred to only the husband and a newborn. And because it's sexualized so much among Christians and amongst those in Hollywood, I believe there could be some negative effects that could follow as a consequence to exposing a young child, teenager, or even an adult male that struggles with the eyes.

How would it do them good? Some parents dont want their kids to see things like that.

Perhaps you could first answer my question, then I will answer your question. Exactly how are children harmed by seeing a mother breastfeeding her child?

This ignores the fact that breasts were just as sexualized in Europe at one time, perhaps more so than in America. Visit a beach in France or Italy or Greece or other European countries and you will see that is no longer the case.
