Yes, an Australian court had to tell a mom not to breast feed her kid, who is should be learning to read and ride a bike. Not sucking a breast.
And no, this isn't related to Adam Sandler's "Grown Ups" (which sucked, by the way).
So here is the nitty gritty:
According to
The Beacon Herald, the boy's parents and his caregiver of five years are battling over custody in court.
Allegedly, the boy told his caregiver that during a visit to see his family last summer, his mother "hit him with a belt and asked him to suck on her nipple like he was breastfeeding."
She denied it-- obviously-- and the court ordered her not to expose her breasts to him or ask him to feed on/ touch her breasts.
Um, well, I for one, certainly hope this crazy woman isn't allowed to see her kid anymore.
What say you?

Um, ew? Sounds like sexual abuse to me.
Wow, breastfeeding should stop when the kid gets teeth. Srsly. Fucked up.
>_>
really?
Seriously?
Thats REALLY messed up.
wait this should be on mommaroo but yeah this is totally messed up.
In no way shape or form should breastfeeding go that far. I know hippies will disagree but when children don't need the milk anymore (after one year old) you need to think about what's best for the child psychologically and stop!
I hope the kid is safe and far away from his mother. That's just sick. :S
wtf?? i dont know what else to say..
That's messed up.
This one isn't even a matter of someone breastfeeding later than traditional. The way it's phrased, I'm not even sure the mother is still lactating. Agh!
Wow...
It's not about breastfeeding. It's about fucking sexual abuse, and we should be asking why she can still see and be around this kid.
Omg, that is sexual abuse. I hope this woman goes to jail for a long time. I feel sorry for the kid.
jeez. that's scary and creepy.
@SeeBeeWrite@xanga - Probably won't be for long.
This isn't even about whether or not children should be breastfeeding until the age of 6. She hit him and demanded he do it, and it sounds like it wasn't something that took place regularly since he was "visiting", making it physical and sexual abuse, not breastfeeding.
Gross.
Lol, I thought this was just going to be another case of weird mom's continuing to breastfeed.. Um, gross. Sexual abuse, anyone?
Wow that's gross...since the boy has to be at least five years old...SICK. Some people shouldn't have children.
6 years old and still breastfeeding. my god...
doesnt it hurt...
@mrslasko10@xanga - hey. don't take a hit on hippies. we are loving, not stupid.
Um EWWWWWWWWWWW.
Well... That doesn't sound like breastfeeding, that sounds like sexual abuse. How else would you describe to a six year old what you want them to do to your nipple? Breastfeeding, fine. Getting your tot to titillate your titties, not ok.
Maybe she had neglectful mother syndrome and regressed back to her need to nurture.
Naah on second thought she's a perv.
