The American Academy of Pediatrics is the latest, and largest, medical society to sound an alarm about the increasing use of scissors or lasers to cut away some infants' tongue tissue when breastfeeding is difficult.
“It's almost an epidemic,” said Dr. Maya Bunik, a Colorado-based co-author of the report.

In Africa, passing down funny names from one generation to another might be deliberate, but the intentions are free of malice and any sort of prejudice, other than strong cultural beliefs.
