Yes, I agree! As the parent of a young man with Asperger's Syndrome and
bi-polar disorder (and ADHD) who was breastfed (and we co-slept and I wore
him in a sling until I was too pregnant with #2 to manage it) I know all too
well that parenting and feeding choices are not enough to prevent
developmental disabilities and mental illnesses. What I do know is that my
parenting and feeding choices helped build a solid foundation for our
family. I also find that I have no regrets or guilt about his diagnoses, in
part because I know in my heart that he was given the best start possible.
