The picture on this magazine has caused a lot of controversies world wide. This is A Time magazine cover with L.A. mom,  Jamie Lynne Grumet breast-feeding her son, almost 4-year-old son promises to be the head-snapping checkout-stand stopper of the season, based on the fevered reaction provoked by the magazine’s pre-Mother’s Daylanding.

 “My mother breast-fed me until I was six years old until I self-weaned. Her encouragement to breast-feed is why we were so successful.”

– “It’s really warm. It’s like embracing your mother, like a hug. You feel comforted, nurtured and really, really loved. I had so much self-confidence as a child, and I know it’s from that. I never felt like she would ever leave me. I felt that security.”


Should breastfeeding continue at the child’s age?. Are there risks for the mother or child? Would you want to breast feed your child at this age?.
