I can see that this is something you are passionate about and I fed my DS for 27 mnths and often feel frustration whenever I see a bottle...

HOWEVER at the end of the day I know nothing about thier lives and who knows if I lived in thier shoes I would probably make the same decision and I don't think age has anything to do with it... a first time mum is a first time mum no matter her age.

I think another previous poster said it well.... sometimes it's not about understanding but respecting everyone's choice
