76 year old woman breastfeeding her 41 year old son

OMFrickenGod.

I disagree with the *expert* opinion that she will win; I disagree based on her own *testimony* alone:

"“It’s my right as a mother to breastfeed my child,” says Mrs. Berrety. “If people don’t agree with the way I raise my son, that’s their problem. I have raised a great man, beautiful, tall, who still lives and stays with me. I think I’ve done a great job as a mother and don’t appreciate getting insulted and expelled just because I decided to breastfeed my child a little longer than other mothers.”

By her chosen wording of this part alone, she is well aware she's doing it for a reason other than to provide nourishment to a growing infant; she is well aware the act is borne of something [at the very least] bordering on a perverse pleasure for the both of them.




ETA: Oh, well, then...it's a story that was created as an online hoax, simply to yank others' chains.
 
Breastfeeding is fine only if the child is less than two years old. Both need to know that they're real adults and not 'insane'.

OOOOOPS. Don't let the La Leche League see that!!!

"Anyhow, last week I went to a La Leche League meeting (if you don't know who they are, which I didn't either, they are an international group with hundreds of local chapters who strongly advocate breastfeeding) and the women there floored me. Many were still breastfeeding 2- and 3-year-olds and one was even breastfeeding a 5-year-old! This 5-year-old was taller than my 7-year-old niece!"

:blackeye:
 
I'm not a fan once a child starts on a solid diet. I still think 2 is too old. One was my cut off point.
 
Glad that didn't happen. I'd be disgusted and horrified if that happened while I was eating a meal at KFC.

Agree. At best, if I was a stay-at-home mom, I'd let my child let me know when they're ready...anywhere from when their first teeth start coming in to 2 years old.

I wasn't able to breast-feed my one-and-only, even though I'd wanted to. He was born with a severe (and atypical) type of jaundice and was under special lights pretty much for the first week of his life. Because of it, they had to feed him water through a REALLY big nipple with a REALLY big hole. The little shit was *too lazy* to work for it, once he met my breast. It was pretty traumatic for all 3 of us, holding him up to my breast and listening to him scream out of hunger for 2 hours while I tried to *force* him to take it. Finally, I handed him to his dad, handed his dad a bottle and walked away from all of it, and cried for hours in the other room. Then, I decided that was last time his dad would feed him; even if I couldn't breast feed him, I could still be the only TO hold him while he fed.

He's [pretty (much)] "n-no-normal", these days. For the most part. Kinda. O.o

:hug:I'm sorry that must of being really difficult emotionally to go through. As well as stressful.

I just think, weening them off the breast gets harder the older they get. Solids give them the nurishment they need.
