NEW YORK (Reuters Health) - Mothers who breast-feed their newborns for
longer periods of time are less likely to abuse them, new study findings

"The longer the mother breast-fed her infant, the less likely her risk of
being reported for subsequent abuse," Dr. Lane Strathearn of the Baylor
College of Medicine and Texas Children's Hospital in Houston told Reuters
Health.
