<< Dr. Laura said she didn't know of any reason it might be harming the
 child to be breastfed at 19 months but suggested if the caller thought
 it was to a)  call children's protective services and b)  send to Dr.
 Laura via fax anything the caller could find on the harmful nature of
 breastfeeding a child this long.

 Dr. Laura's fax number is 818-461-5140
 Her website is at:
         http://drlaura.com/main/

 Maybe we could/should educate her on the benefits of extended
 breastfeeding?

Or maybe even the benefits of nursing the  physiologically expected and normal
