Love the article. I have often pondered those thoughts, raised my children alone with emotional support from friends. You do the best you can.

Good analysis, one thing missing though is the economic reality of it taking 2 incomes to raise a child. I have many working Mum (still married) friends who are such out of necessity rather than choice.

Removing the disabled not only robs our society of the opportunity to develop more compassion, it robs all of us of the opportunity to be motivated for action. How can we prevent terrible medical errors such as those suffered by this mother if we can’t see the consequences of those errors? How would our perception of war, or our strategies be changed, if we spent a day in the shoes of our injured soldiers? We need more action in this country!

How are these children going to feel towards there father, when they find out as they grow older. I heard of him before and could not believe his actions as well as the relatives/friends. Great article Wendy

Great piece Dr. Walsh. One of the best things about love is it’s infinite variety. Maybe one day David will get to learn about that when his children find out what he did and don’t discard him as he did their Mother and their chances to be enriched by knowing her.

Here you go Cherise….

“Erotophilic women (verses erotophobic) showed more sexual interest, activity, and satisfaction during pregnancy; they reported more sexual interest and an earlier resumption of coitus in the postpartum period; and they were more likely to breastfeed their child.”

I would like to add that While breastfeeding and pumping, my husband commented that This process turned him on. It was something he was proud of, and made him love me more. So to those who say it’s creepy and gross… I feel empowered and sexy. REAL Men find it sexy too!

There’s something funny going on in a culture when it is considered abnormal to have a mummy’s breast milk but totally normal to have the mother’s milk of another species well into adulthood. Very very odd…

@Ahmie. Great info. Of course what I meant was that feeding infants anything other than human milk was pretty unreliable until 1932 and usually resulted in infant mortality.
