Breast Feeding.

Started by Makedde9 pages

My neighbour breastfed her daughter until she was 18 months old, she kept biting, lol!

Breast feeding

To be frank, anyone who finds breast feeding during infantile years, in public or not, in the street or in a restaurant, is perverted and insecure.

It's a completely natural thing, how can you consider feeding your child a cows milk, which is for calves, the norm?
How can you expect people to respect you finding it awkward or embarrassing when a woman breast feeds in public? It is a natural process.
How can it be seen as offensive? Breasts are just breasts, they are not a 'private part', every one has breast tissue, male or female.
And how can one claim it is indecent exposure when it is pefectly acceptable for a woman to reveal her breasts to get a tan but not to feed her baby.

Anyone who finds it awkward, even in childrens early years, needs to see a therapist.

And hello to all on the forum, my first post.

Yes... though I don't think anybody here is saying it's wrong in the early months of the child's life, just a bit odd to continue it when the child is 4 years of age or older...

And for some reason I am reminded of a certain character from Little Britain...

I agree with you. I know someone who believes that breastfeeding is sexual, that women only do it to get pleasure. They also believe that it's sick to breastfeed in public, and that it could incite men to rape the woman. 🙄

I agree. It was a surprise to me to know that there is people who find it offensive. Its like find pregnancy, or eating offensive. But living as we live we cannot hope that everything to be seem as natural, even if they are, humans are too distant from nature, there is a lot of corruption, pervertion, stupidity, etc.

People with such opinions are to be viewed with suspicion.

✅ that was the point of this thread. I don't think breast feeding is wrong just after about a year to a year and a half it becomes meaningless.

i think its wrong anyway.

Breastfeeding until a child is six is jut a bit weird, i mean the child is in school - just seems plain odd to me.
I dont actually like seeing anyone breastfeeding in public though. I dont know why I just think it should be done in private.

I'm from the states and public tanning of the chest is considered indecent if done in a public place. I'm sure there are areas where it's not an issue. Nudist camps come to mind, but seem like an extreme and not entirely relevant to this topic. Although, they do live a lifestyle that's out of the ordinary, just like how breastfeeding past 2-3 years is also unorthodox.
I listen to BBC's 1xtra radio station over the net and I heard mention of this issue and a program or documentary that was going to talk about this, sometime last week. I couldn't watch it, being from the states, but It sounded interesting. I think it's not necessarily for the child's benefit to be breastfed until that late an age. It's been mentioned before, and although i'm not sure of how true it is, I'd imagine the nutritional value would be next to nil at that point. Want to give your child nutritional aid? Buy some vitamins. It seems like it's more for the mother than the child. She most likely wants to keep that child sheltered and has a hard time letting go of this close and intimate (not in a dirty sexual way, mind you) relationship. It's all a bit much, isn't it? A 9 year old being breastfed? He's around the corner from discovering his sexuality, for goodness sake. *shudders*

Well most breast feed for the antibodies that are picked up from the mother. But I think after a year it's no longer needed. It's said if you can go at least 3 months that would be good, though it's better to go around 6 ot 9 months...because after that the child builds up his/her own immune system and it's no longer needed.

Exactly my point.. I think the anti bodies in breast milk protect the child for up to 6 months.. after that breast milk as no nutritional value that normal milk doesn't have.

déjà vu.... I think I said this already.... 😑

Indeed, old Europe prior to WWII, prior to the 1900's or old Europe prior to the Renaissance (which I know was also before the 1900's) - all are considered time frames in a broad sense.
