Dear Friends--

I hate to be a spoilsport, but if early weaning were the "cause" of
alcoholism, well over half of the current 30-50 year olds in the US
should be alcoholic because only a tiny percentage of them were ever
breastfed. Or is this Danish study suggesting that it is "better" not to
try to breastfeed if you aren't _sure_ you can make it past 3 weeks?
And how does this relate to all the data that tells us that alcoholism
is highly genetic and also associated with familial depression?

Warmly-
Judy Gelman
