Let's see your lactation speciaist credentials buddy. Nine months, twelve months, twenty-two months... all arbitrary. Very simply, nursing is good for kids. America somehow manufactured this myth that one year old is a magical time to wean. It isn't. A lot of moms don't go beyond a year for reasons I totally respect... time, job, discomfort, pregnancy, willingness to reclaim one's body, anything at all is perfectly respectable... except the arbitrary "it's been a year" reason citing it as if the one-year-mark has medical or biological significance. Consider what is and what is not censored in news media, books, and movies in this country, and it becomes clear that Americans are for reasons completely outdated and patriarchal horrified at boobs and not at war, death, and violence.
OMG!!!!
