Can you name one place where that is where a woman "must" breastfeed? Wherever she is when her child is hungry.
Actually, no you can't and haven't answered the question. There is NO time that a mother must drop everything the second her child is hungry to feed her child, so there is no "MUST" involved. What if she is in a traffic jam? Should she stop her car and start breast feeding? Of course not. This isn't to say that she might not want to pull over to the shoulder and take care of her child, but the majority of mothers are going to gauge how long they think they will be in the traffic jam, and very likely will choose to wait.

Or is it that she has chosen to do so? As is her legal right.
It is your legal right to be a lesbian and your legal right to have sex. Should I have to watch you having sex on a park bench? For the record, I don't care to see ANYONE regardless of sexual preference having sex on a park bench, before you attempt (foolishly) to make an issue of that.
A "legal right" (which given that you are not in this country, so have little understanding of that term here) does not mean it can be done any where, any time.

Did you read the article? Yes, but that is irrelevant, you asked general questions

Was she sitting at the plaintiff or defense table? Did she have an attorney?
Do you know what occurs in a US courtroom? All completely irrelevant to the questions you asked or the questions I asked.
Actually, your lack of understanding is obvious here. The question, specifically, was is it inappropriate to breast feed, and by implication, engage in certain behaviors in a court room.
Again, not answering.

So when is a parent responsible for teaching the child about "social conventions?" That process would start sometime after it is an infant.
Now, perhaps, though it is unlikely, you will now be so kind as to answer my question.
Why does breastfeeding upset you so much that you go on a three page rant against it?
Again, this was specifically about breastfeeding in a court room. Breast feeding doesn't upset me, and it is something I have seen in many public places. On a bench in the mall, in the "lounge" area of a ladies room, at the park, even in a parking lot.
But again, you failed to answer my question.
The reality is that while one can have "ideals" as to how they believe they will raise a child, until they have one, they really have no concept, only those ideals.
Obviously, you have not been taught about proper social conventions yourself, so it is doubtful you would ever teach such to any child you might have. Then again, if you should ever have a child, your "ideals" might take a complete turn in a different direction.
For the record, it is not 3 pages of me talking.
