Breastfeeding Cop Gets Promotion

Remember last month when I wrote about that female police officer that was going around China trying to help with the disaster and keep order? Her heart was broken when she saw the devastation and wanted to help out more than she was. That’s when Jaing Xiaojuan decided to breastfeed children that were beginning to starve or who’s moms just didn’t have any breast milk left. It was such a touching story.
Guess what? She got a promotion for this. I can honestly say this just puts a smile on my face. This is a woman that did the every day thing that a mom does, but ended up saving lives and is now getting an award for it. Hopefully this will help her and her family out and show others that doing good deeds does pay off as well. Course I think the greatest payoff was knowing she was helping these kids.

Thanks to Tracee at BlogFabulous for pointing me towards it.

















What’s crazy about that article is that some people complained that cops should only get promotions for life-saving measures worthy of “merit.” Interesting they don’t feel breastfeeding orphaned babies worthy of merit.
