Thanks to all of you who sent me links to research and comments for my client on prolonged breastfeeding.  She has to negotiate with her husband in a family court this week on visitation. While trying to reinforce the importance of achieving a win-win situation so that the children will not be separated from either parent, there did seem to be a consensus that while the toddler is breastfeeding, it would be better for the father to have quality time with him during the day and not at night when he is more dependent on being with his mother.
Sometimes it is difficult to separate the role of breastfeeding counsellor from other family issues because I feel that if she can appear flexible and co-operative in the family court it will benefit her and the children while assuring the father that his rights are being considered fairly.
So thanks to all who sent me such valuable material and comments
