we don't give out the bounty packs at all where I work.
mainly due I think to all the propaganda and also the fact they had formula samples for newborns...(i think)

You can request material not be included in the packs, and this I would
certainly have a problem with, also. Bounty really should notify when
additions are to be included, and give people a chance to comment. Maureen

That's utterly shocking, Rachel. There's enough crap from multinationals and no real information about bf or birth but to add that rubbish in merely adds
insult to injury.

I have a problem with giving out bounty packs as it is but...

Opened one yesterday and noticed an addition hidden inside. Castlemaine
XXXX
have produced a 'dad's pack'. It includes: earplugs (so you can ignore
your
crying baby); a face mask and gloves for nappy changing; stickers saying
'I
changed my first nappy' etc; and BEER VOUCHERS!!!!

I cannot believe that queensland health (committed to 'community health')
is
handing this message out to parents. This seems so wrong on many levels: first, not all women have a male partner - should they get a 'dad pack', could cause upset. What message are we giving fathers about their role?
How
many problems are caused by irresponsible alcohol consumption - health,
social etc. Is it just me? Or do others think this is totally
inappropriate?
