Totally agree….my brothers and I were all breastfed for at least a year and my oldest 2 brothers suffer from severe anxiety and I have dysthymia (chronic low level depression), anorexia and anxiety…..doesn’t calculate at least for my family. My husband who wasn’t breastfed is the most grounded sound individual I know. The “studies” really should be examined closely before such broad statements are made.

That’s right! Mothers feel guilty enough! They shouldn’t worry when it comes to doing what they think is best for their child and their family.

I agree. Women should try their best at breastfeeding but should avoid the guilt it doesn’t work out.
