Want to clarify ...
LadySnow, I agree that most certainly parents do not make their children gay/lesbian/bi/trans. I was born gay. |

I found the photo disturbing...and then I did some soul searching as to WHY I found it so disturbing. And the reason was that is was a staged photo designed to provoke controversy. Hell, I don't care how women breastfeed, or when, or how long...that is entirely up to each individual. And I could care less if they choose to do it while hanging upside down from a tree! However, I DO have a problem with someone posing a woman the way THEY want to and staging a photograph. And then to block in a title that somehow implies that a certain type of "mothering" is better than another. Yeah...I have a BIG problem with that.

Takes two in a decision in a relationship
What is ironic to me (not really) is that Dad gets no criticism at all, nor is he being shamed for making this decision as well..
Mysoginy and sexism are a curious thing.... The women and children are the ones always shit on...

I haven't read through the entire thread, so I am apologizing if this has already been covered.....
Is it really the the act of breast-feeding that is the nurturing part, or is it the act of holding the child close to you in a loving way for periods of time? I believe that it can be both, but one does not negate the other. I breast-fed for about 2 months, but bottles were used at the same time when I was back at work. Does this mean that my relationship and closeness with my son is any different from others who breast-fed their children for longer than I did with no bottle? Nope. I also don't appreciate that this idea promotes only the closeness of mothers to their children. What about fathers... what about adoptive parents... what about other family members who end up taking care of someone elses child? I believe that we all do what we find best for our kids...but as others have stated, why do we have to start an us and them controvery again? I abhor the fact that they chose to stage the cover with the child standing up, when the mother states that she breast feeds-him in a cradling, cuddling fashion. It's a shame that TIME appears to have taken sides. |

This article is for those who don't believe there is a benefit for breast feeding after babies get teeth. That is such a misconception.
