<< In the *lovely* book
 (NOT) by Dr. Patricia Love, titled "Emotional Incest" nursing beyond one
 year is included in the list of "warning signs" for Emotional Incest.  So is
 co-sleeping, so is home-schooling(!).  Dr. Love has no citations to any
 scientific research in her book, nor is there any evidence to suggest that
 nursing for the normal duration for our species is a symptom of some
 horribly inappropriate relationship between parent and child.  However, this
 book has found its way into the hands of local pediatricians who say things
 to mothers like "You're *still* nursing?  You know, nursing past a year is
 one of the clear signs of emotional incest syndrome.  You need to wean NOW."
 I've even heard one person, a Ph.D. psychologist, say that the very LACK of
 scientific documentation in Dr. Love's book is evidence that the information
 is well-known and well-documented and widely-accepted.  Duh. >>

Hmmm -- an Ezzo clone??
