Okay, so I’ve gotten a lot of tongue lashings for my post Breastfeeding: How Old Is Too Old? There’s been a lot of moms that say “I breastfed my kids until they were 6, 7, 8, etc…” and I’m the best mom in the world!! (paraphrasing, of course.)
So, here’s the deal. I don’t agree with breastfeeding your kids well into school age, but what’s it to you? It’s not like I’m gonna walk up to you on the street and shake my finger in your face… it’s none of my damn business. I just don’t agree with it. Do I cringe? Yep. But, not where you can see me. Just like I cringe at most socialist liberal ideas that are supposed to make the whole world best friends, but do I call up the president and say “hey Mr. President, I’m cringing at you right now.” No. Why? Two reasons: A. He wouldn’t give a shit. B. It’s a waste of my time. I don’t like wasting my time.
I find it laughable that commentors are so fired up about my post that they feel the need to litter my blog with their negative comments toward my beliefs, while all the while trying to make the point that I’m the bad guy here for judging theirs. Hypocritical much?
The truth of the matter is – and I direct this to you, “best moms in the world for breastfeeding your kids before they go out on their first date”, there are hundreds of mothers, fathers, people out there that agree with me in saying that it’s ridiculous. Unfortunately, when it comes to this subject, none of them say anything because you all act like rabid wolves out to catch the only fox in the land when they do. But again… who gives a shit? Right?
Well, you do, apparently.
Oh, and to answer one of your questions: Why do I feel the need to post this on my blog? Well, because last time I checked, the liberals haven’t taken over yet and this is still a free country.
Breast feeding a child that can go potty by themselves and use a fork is ridiculous. Breast feeing 5,6,7 or older? OMG!
You go right on giving your opinions, they’re excellent ones!
I agree 100%! and you know my opinion? some of those “long-term” breastfeeding mothers seem to adopt such a stance, more for the expectation of a pat on their back from the society than for their children…
