Attachment Parenting gone wrong

There are a couple of things that really put me off the whole attachment parenting thing.

One is people having home births with elder siblings watching. I’m sure these people don’t let their kids watch horror movies, so why let them watch their mother fall about in absolute agony for hours on end, followed by the bloody emergence of their new little brother or sister from their mother’s stretched and possibly torn vagina? Sounds like MA rated viewing to me.

The other is prolonged breastfeeding. And by prolonged I don’t mean twelve or even eighteen months, I mean years. When kids are old enough to pour themselves a drink, surely the boobs should go back to dad?

I seriously hope the whole thing is a massive joke, otherwise Cumbria has some disturbed little kids running around.
