Twice in 24 hours: a descriptive term used as an epithet.
1. the mother who complained of her baby's lack of any sense of boundaries
2. the respondents to the Jane (I'm guessing that would be as in 'Tarzan
and...') magazine survey on acceptability of BF a five year old, calling
this, quite rightly, co-dependency.

If referring to a couple whose infant or child was being denied milk because
the adults had some 'need' or recreational use for it, I would consider the
co-dependency to be a sign of pathology.  But this was a lactating mammalian
mother, feeding her young.  They are SUPPOSED to be co-dependent, for pity's
sake!

Sheesh, sheesh and sheesh again.
