I just took a look at this latch animation:

http://www.kellymom.com/bf/start/basics/latch-resources.html

I have some concerns about how it may be misinterpreted.
It seems to me that a new mother might look at that animation and
think that the mother is pushing the baby onto the breast.

We know that a baby is usually able to open his mouth wider (jaw drops
lower) if his head is allowed to fall back a little, but the angle of
the animation indicates the baby's neck is being held very firmly.

What do you all think?
