I think the difference between children who are breastfed and bottlefed 
has something to do with the closeness, the holding, the skin-to-skin, 
the responsiveness and attachment that goes along with breastfeeding. 
It's emotional as well as physical nourishment, and humans need it. It's 
the earliest experience of relationships. I recently saw a young mom 
busy texting on her cell phone while her baby (about 6 months old) was 
in a plastic carrier nearby, feeding himself a bottle. When you 
breastfeed, you hold your baby.
