Hello everyone.

I've been asked if I know of anyone, or any group, in Israel, who might 
help support a mother who is being threatened with legal action about 
her breastfeeding past infancy.

It's a third party contact, so I'd be putting you in touch with another 
supporter.  The mother lives in the Modi'in area.  She breastfed the 
child until 5 years old, and currently, the child is 10.  A report has 
been presented which appears to indicate child abuse, as the child likes 
to hug the Mum's breasts, and the previous breastfeeding appears to be 
part of the issue.   The mother is seeking some support on breastfeeding 
into early years as normal.

I'm offlist at the moment, due to pressure of other work and 
commitments, so if you could reply to my personal email as well, I'd 
appreciate it.  From experience, replies can come  a few weeks after a 
post, as people catch up! :-)
