Educate yourself
Quote From: missjane2Am I for Real? I think maybe I should be asking you this when you say: "A very long time ago, women who were lactating would nurse the elderly, so they could keep up their strength."
***gasps***** Woah! breastfeeding grandma? Now this is crossing the line! I would go as far to call it sacreligous.
Now comforting a screaming two year old tantrum with breastfeeding is one thing, but breastfeeding grandma is wrong. There are a whole lot of other ways to provide grandma with strength. But that subject probably doesn't belong on the Dr. Phil show, but on the Jerry Springer show. My whole point was that breastfeeding has many, many benefits and I think it is sad that we can't give our baby what is best. Just because people are uncomfortable. I'm not saying in this day and age where we have great medicines is it necessary to BF our grandparents.(I went way off topic there, sorry my education speaking) I think you are looking at breastfeeding as a sexual act, it is none of the sort. Maybe if more of us breastfed our babies/children we would have more strong, healthy, confident people in this world.
