Gee, what's lazy about not breastfeeding?  Preparing
bottles is a LOT more work, not to mention having to
cart them with you everywhere you go.

As far as kids in school, day care, whatever... if
your goal is to convert the world, or even those in
charge of your child's eating away from home, to the
belief that we should all eat paleo - well, it's going
to take a lot of time and energy, and a very thick
skin.  But if you simply want to ensure that your
child eats healthy food away from home, it's called
allergy/intolerance/special health needs.  Then work
out with them what they can accommodate and what you
will send from home.

In practical terms, just telling the school your child
cannot eat dairy or grains will eliminate the vast
majority of objectionable foods without making things
too difficult or complicated.
