Re: Breastfeeding
Sara I don't think I have missed the point of this thread with due respect.
I wrote "In this case I think the women should encourage the girls to be independent of her." "I guess in this case the woman has not been able to let go." I agree its not the convention to breast feed children when they are as old as 8 or whatever it was. However I am not going to judge the woman like you are trying to do. I have taken advantage of your thread to point out the advantages of breastfeeding in general and I think you are confusing the two issues. This is a health and fitness forum and we discuss, share, inform and educate each other. We don't judge other people or at least that is what I think this forum is all about. So forgive me if I have tried to do that insteading of judging the women in question.
