Abstract

ABSTRACT Influenced by nutritional science, feeding children is generally thought of in terms of children’s health and well-being.

While their ethic opens up new perspectives on health and childcare, I discuss how “sustainable” reproductive practices can also solidify gender stereotypes and modes of ordering species.
