From NBC News:An Ohio mother says she was ticketed for breast-feeding her child while driving.
"When my baby wants to eat, she wants to eat," said Genine Compton.
Compton received a ticket for not having her 1-year-old daughter in a child seat. She got the ticket after another driver reported her for breast-feeding while driving.
It is an accusation she doesn't deny. But she says she doesn't deserve the ticket because a police officer didn't witness the offense.
"We have no issue with her breast-feeding in public," explained Michael Burke of the Kettering Police Department. "Our concern is for the safety of the child."
Compton will be in court next week. She is facing a child endangerment charge and a child restraint ticket. She could receive jail time and a fine.
