I think before this goes any further, all of you need to know I am a big fan of breast feeding. I believe in it and support it and think that if possible children should be breast fed until they are six months. I know many people cannot do it for whatever reason such as work or an inability to do so and that is fine as well. I’m not judging and don’t think you are a bad parent if you don’t. The point of all this is that Gossip Girl actress Kelly Rutherford gave an interview to US Weekly in which she says she is still breast feeding her 2 year old son and is about to give birth to a second child this summer. She says she loves breast feeding her son and that many cultures do it until the baby is five years old. She plans on doing it with her son until it doesn’t feel right anymore. OK, just because some cultures do it until a child is five does not mean that you need to do it to. In the vain of “You Might Be A Redneck If…” here are my “You Know It’s Time To Stop Breast Feeding When…”
