The Netherlands1. A centuries-old tradition of
motherhood
No tradition of wetnurses, like in France
The Dutch poet Jacob Cats warns in the 17th century against this French tradition, saying:
The little child will get the character of the woman who feeds him with her milk.
andHe who drinks the milk of a goat as a baby will get the
character of a goat!

2. The Netherlands escaped from dramatic events in history
•No great War ( 1914-1918) like England ( 1,5 million women were mobilized) and France
•No mass poverty, nor mass immigration in the 19th century like in Ireland and Sweden
•The Netherlands then is already overpopulated
