Yes I am - but you have said that children do not rely on their mothers' bodily nutrients to survive. You did not say `children who are not breastfed' or `some children'. You just said children. Full stop. So I thought I'd better clarify because, you know, it seemed like you might have forgotten that the very vast majority of children do indeed feed of their mothers to survive.

Fun at my age!

So those children who are not being breastfed do not rely on their mothers nutrients to keep them alive. Nor are they using her body like they were when they were a fetus. Meaning independancy. Look it up sometime.

Perhaps you should look it up - how to spell it, that is.

Besides, I wasn't disputing what you said - just your blanket application to ALL children.

Well okay then, I didn't put it right the first time, but now it is right, and thank you for pointing it out to me.
