Breast-Feeding Is Not Fit for TIME’s Cover

It is one thing to do an article about breast-feeding, but it is totally another to make it your cover and show it in such graphic detail.

It is one thing to do an article about breast-feeding or state that some people choose to breast-feed three year olds, but it is totally another to make it your cover and show it in such graphic detail. Not only was it in poor taste (no pun intended), but the way it was portrayed in the picture was disgusting. Don’t get me wrong, I am not against breast-feeding, nor am I opposed to a 3-year-old breast-feeding if that is the only way they can get the milk or nutrients they need. But I am pretty sure that is not the case in this country with all the government programs available. Honestly, it grossed me out as nothing else has in years!
