Friends, Time magazine's
latest cover issue is causing a huge stir on the 'net.
The
controversial photo in question features a 26-year-old Jamie Lynn Grunett breastfeeding her 3-year-old son! The
accompanying article features an expose on attachment parenting and what it
means to be "mom enough".
Attachment
parenting is an approach where moms breast-feed their children long past the
months age and co-sleep with their children, in addition to wearing their
children in slings.
Photographer Martin Schoeller shot Jamie and three other mothers who abide
by the attachment parenting philosophy breastfeeding their toddlers.
Schoeller said, “When you think of breast-feeding,
you think of mothers holding their children, which was impossible with some of
these older kids,” “I liked the idea of having the kids
standing up to underline the point that this was an uncommon situation”.
This is
definitely an uncommon situation! What's your view about this? or As woman can you breast-feed your baby for 3 years?
