Unfortunatly, I use the "fast food" and McD dining concept to explain to
parents why a kiddo will gulp a bottle- I tell them that at some point
their going to have to convince a toddler that  "happy m-als" are not a
balenced diet 3 times a day. Breastfeeding is  mom preparing the healthest
meal she can quicker than anyone else and is the only truely healthy "fast
food" there is.
 On the bonding issue- while I breastfed all my kids until they chose to
wean I honestly believe that true bonding is when its 2am, your rocking a
child thats thrown up on you three times and you STILL love them....!
Infatuation and awe is the beginning of bonding but time is the glue that
keeps it working. ( IMHO)
