So this is the latest media controversy in the USA…
The subjects on this week’s TIME cover aren’t models in pose. Jamie Lynne Grumet, photographed by Martin Schoeller with her 3-year-old son, is a mother from Los Angeles who subscribes to attachment parenting, the subject of staff writer Kate Pickert’s cover story. Attachment parenting has been on the rise over the past two decades, since the publication of The Baby Book by Dr. Bill Sears and his wife Martha in 1992. Its three main tenets are extended breast-feeding, co-sleeping and “baby wearing,” in which infants are physically attached to their parents by slings.
I know breastfeeding helps lose pregnancy weight, but 3 years? Does weaning not apply to people?

If it was a fat heffer on the cover instead of a hot mom everyone would find it disgusting. As it is the only people who find it disgusting are those who are not picturing themselves in that kid’s place.
To solve this dilemma, breastfeeding should be done by someone else’s mom all the time. Boob swapping. Then it’s just practice for adulthood. In 12 years time that kid will again be trying to get his mouth around any pair of boobs he can. Just like the rest of us.

The mother on the cover is 26-years-old, the kid is 3, but she also has a 5-year-old. Mom got busy early.

We got a mommy on my street with a 7 y o doing the same thing. But she’s not that hot, rather hippiejish. Not that awesome when the kids comes yearning for milk and she simply pulls her shirt up and lets him feed… nasty.

The only thing wrong I see in that pic is it’s not my face on her boob.
