[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]People judge me for having the overweight kid with ADHD-combined, who I didn't put on medication. Most people don't know that he has mild cerebral palsy (causing him to be stiff, uncoordinated, and lacking full depth perception), but don't understand why he isn't more active. His eating is part genetics and part his relationship with food. They probably judge me for being overly involved with his schoolwork and life in general. People judge me for forcing my kids to do workbooks over the summer and to do chores. I am judging the mom who is breastfeeding any kid over 1.5yrs old or so. They don't need it. There are other ways to comfort them that don't keep them a baby. Also, the mom breastfeeding the 4 yr old...your kid will likely be in school in another year. What then? Breastfeed as an after school snack? Or will your kid be the red-shirted kid because they need the "gift" of another year? I judge others for leashing their kids, not being aware of what their kids are doing (shows, games, homework), and not disciplining their kids. [/quote] You have an overweight kid who has ADHD, with an unhealthy relationship with food and you are judging people for breastfeeding that is proven to prevent obesity and is better for their brain development? :lol: :lol: Oh the irony!! Breastmilk is better for brain development and breastfeeding creates a sense of security for the children. Smart and high achieving kids do not get red-shirted. I think you may have MSBP. [/quote] Breastfeeding doesn't prevent obesity. Correlation vs causation. You aren't very smart. [/quote] I love when uneducated people say that, without even understanding what they are talking about. Breastfeeding is absolutely decreasing the obesity risk, and has been proven multiple times, using multilevel regression analyses on different populations, from Canada, to Korea, and to Uganda. Read plosone. Go back to school.[/quote] DP. You need to stop posting. You literally do not understand what these studies have shown. I am extremely familiar with them all and can cite them all in detail. You do not understand the science or what the papers concluded and those of us with the actual backgrounds here think what you have written is full of it, to put it mildly. - researcher[/quote]
