The kid is getting too old to be breastfeeding. At some point breastfeeding becomes nothing more than a sexual experience for the mom and later on for both of them.
There was a movie out of Spain a few years ago about a 9-year old boy who crossed the county seeking the perfect breast to suck. It was pure breast porn involving a child.
All I can say after looking at the pic is wow.
It’s absolutely revolting and offensive.
That is not a baby at her breast by any stretch of the imagination.
Disgusting.
Togas in the senate are next.
She’s only doing it to stay skinny. As soon as she quits, she’s gonna blow up like a balloon.
It’s so disgusting, it’s perverted and nothing short of pedophilia being mainstreamed. All out Sodom.
Why am I thinking “Oreo”?
TIME Magazine has been dying for years. I believe the only attention and publicity TIME magazine gets now is from Conservatives ripping on it.
If we ignore it, it WILL go away.
You only want to breast feed to that age and slightly beyond if you are living in a “famine” situation and the food is limited and you want to give your child the best nutrition for their developing brain.
This is beacue if the SHTF the amount of fats and especially protein availble for consumption may go down and it is better for the mom to be feeding their children the fats and proteins in breast milk should the only food that is left is nothing but carb rich food that is not good for a developing kid.
Thus this sorta nursing is something that you only see in third world countries, which means we will see it in our country (by nessisity) soon......
Unless the woman represents the State and the child represents American citizens, this is not a good magazine cover.
On the other hand there are good medical reasons for mother and child to encourage breast feeding of a “baby.”
Delaying the weaning of a child to the age shown on the cover of Time Magazine (suppose to be 3, but he looks older than that) should (unless real solid medical reasons) be worth a a chat with a mental health professional or else a call to Child Protective Services.
One of the health benefits for the mother is that while nursing she actually looses fat cells, which may be part of the reason for the skinny jeans on the cover model mother.
Personally as the father of two who were breastfed by their mother, the standard medical advice of breastfeed for 6 months and then introduce solid food, sounds like a pretty good approach. Especially, since babies start teething typically around 6 months. Breastfeeding a 3 year old doesn't seem right to me.
My sister-in-law’s son clung to her (not breastfeeding but did cling to her) until he was about 7 or 8. He’s 14 now but is a little self-centered namby-pamby who wants everything handed to him. There is a reason birds shove their babies out of the nest early.
Child porn?
But for Time to put it on the cover..is crazy.
Pretty though.
She is a trans racial adopter as well which I know most freepers high five over and call those of us who question it racists.
She seems to epitomize “look at me mommying!!!” which...sorry folks is often what I get from folks around me who adopt black babies on purpose and/or breastfeed rather large 4 year olds on purpose.
But draw your own conclusions.
I say a nutty but pretty shrew-mom-milf
bet my wife has those jeans...
my paternal grandmother breastfed my retarded and very sick aunt as a toddler..3 maybe... in a rural New Mexico workcamp near Artesia is the 20s with milk intended for my then newborn aunt (her younger sister)...that I get and understand but no one put her picture on the Santa Fe front page
this woman is a crusader in boobie milk and her adoption choices
I think Time feels bad about picking on moms and has found a liberal nut who breastfeeds at 4 and adopt non white kids instead of producing more evil world destroying crackers (like me and my 5 spawn)..and that fits their narrative.
never thought I could find anything wrong with breast feeding...I'm all about swollen breasts...i mean wow...it just does something to ya from so many perspectives as an hombre...even an old geezer like me..but this is just weird you know...maybe they are also Game of Thrones writers...anyone else think of that?
Breastfeeding is absolutely wonderful for your BABY. This kid is not a baby anymore. I feel sorry for him, this pic will follow him around the rest of his life. Would not be suprised if somewhere down the road he ends up haboring deep resentment towards his mother.
My favorite comments from Yahoo:
“You know he’s too old when he texts you, ‘Im hngry’...”
“You know he’s too old when his beard tickles....”
Maybe I’ll make a run to Dairy Queen.
Are you all saying it sucks to be that kid?
