Whoa!! Whatever gave you that idea?!! No need to accuse the entire medical
profession either.
A responsive, attentive parent that provides love and affection as well as
gentle discipline during waking hours, breastfeeding or not, will probably
have more psychological impact on a child than one that feeds everytime a
toddler demands to be fed at night.
One simply cannot compensate for one's absence during a child's waking
hours by feeding them on demand during their sleep. That does not mean you
don't breastfeed to comfort a child that needs comforting.
