I feel that it is asking too much of breastfeeding to have an lasting   
impact
on human behavior. Breastfeeding does give a person the best chance at
survival.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

i'd love to see one done on tandem (or triple !) nursing different  
aged sibs. i'm convinced it is almost the single largest factor in  
eliminating any ill-will or aggressiveness toward our newborns . i'm  
always so surprised when going to a new mom's home and hearing them  
say they can't leave new baby alone in the room w/ toddler b/c toddler  
is too aggressive toward newborn. come to think of it tho, i do have  
to avoid leaving newborns w/ toddlers as well, but for a different  
reason: suffocation risk as toddlers (boy or girl!) will try to  
breastfeed the newborn at the slightest whimper !
