OMG FRONT PAGE NEWS, MOM NURSES 3 AND 5 YEAR OLD!

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-1025655/Mummy-milk-The-mother-insists-breastfeeding-children-aged-FIVE-THREE.html

I kept reading the article over and over, wondering if I was missing something, expecting to see that they were consuming nothing BUT breastmilk...

Is this seriously what passes for news in England? I mean I know it's not called the Daily Fail for nothing, but srsly now...

BTW What do you think about moms who out themselves like that? I am pretty open to discussing it with my friends and people I know, but something about putting my kid on a national newspaper and saying "LOOK, HE STILL NURSES!" seems a bit... well like I'm choosing to out him or something? It doesn't sit right with me. Yes I know, normalize it, blah blah. Wouldn't normalizing it be not consenting to being in the paper since "why on earth would you want to do that? It's perfectly normal."
