Country Club Snubs Breastfeeding Mom

A Belgian mother and her diplomat husband were thrown out of a posh country club after she breastfed at the table, according to a story published Sunday in the New York Post.

Tom Neijens, 36, the first secretary of the Belgium Mission to the UN and his wife, Roseline Remans, 34, had stopped by the Metropolis Country Club in White Plains earlier this month to eat lunch. Although they weren’t members, they were seated on the terrace, along with other diners.

Remans reportedly began to inconspicuously breastfeed her daughter Luka at the table when a female supervisor approached and asked her to leave. “She said, ‘Please leave immediately, you are disturbing the members,’” Neijens told the New York Post.

He intervened on his wife’s behalf, telling the supervisor that the feeding would not take long, but Remans was told to finish in the restroom.

“You don’t ask a person to have lunch in the restroom — why would you ask a baby to have lunch there?” Neijens said.

Shortly after the confrontation, the Greenburgh Police Department arrived. The couple told the Post Detective Scott Harding yelled, “Close the doors!” and other diners were asked to leave the terrace.

“He was walking as if he was acting in a Western movie,” Neijens said. “He had one hand on his gun, one hand on his Taser.”

The officer reportedly told the couple that they were trespassing and that other patrons at the club believed them to be terrorists because of the black backpack the couple had in their possession. “In Sri Lanka, babies are used by terrorists,” the cop allegedly said.

When Neijens revealed his State Department-issued ID, the cop softened. “You have to understand, this club has had terrorism threats in the past,” he told the diplomat.

The family was reportedly asked to leave through a back door. A few days later, Neijens emailed the club, demanding an apology from Metropolis general manager Tracy Fraus and assistant general manager Audra Vaccari.

“I am deeply worried about your staff if they cannot distinguish between a European couple looking for a quiet place to breastfeed a baby and suicide terrorists carrying a backpack,” Neijens wrote, according to the Post. A representative from Metropolis Country Club did not respond to Yahoo! Shine’s voice messages. Lt. B.J. Ryan, a spokesman for the Greenburgh PD, told the Post that the incident was a “cultural misunderstanding.”

I thought it was just me.

I DO NOT wanna see you breast feed while I’m eating clam chowder.

I DO NOT wanna listen to your child wail and whine on a 2 hour flight- just because “that’s how kids are..what do you want me to do?”

I do NOT wanna stand in a check outline behind you..and hear your child shriek at the top of her lungs because you won’t buy her a pack of gummy bears…(1/2 of which are on the floor… because she ripped the package open and stuffed 3 in her mouth already.)
