[Margaret Pilkington]

According to Richard and judy they had sought the opinions of psychiatrists, psychologists and the like and they could find no-one who thought extended breast feeding was harmful to either the child or the mother.

They went out on the streets and canvassed public opinion and there was only one woman (of jamaican origin - don't know if that is culturally relevant) who thought that this practice was acceptable. Most people thought that 2 years was the longest anyone should breast feed.....personally even that is too long. Can you imagine being in Tesco and a two year old lifting his mothers jumper to get a feed...?
