Whether it was reported correctly or not it was broadcast on the radio with
the initial story.  The story stated something about in the state of IL
considering breasts to be a sexual object and that's why the mother was in
trouble, she *made* her son have unwanted contact with a sexual organ.
whatever.  Why do I have this feeling that all the educating I have done
with the mainstream bottle feeding family I have has gone down the toilet
since this story???  I would guess you could look up the state statute on
the net, look under the state's child abuse laws.
