I'm very pro breastfeeding babies and have breastfed all of my children, my first 2 for not long enough (6weeks & 5 Months), my 3rd up to 18 months and my 4th to 10 months (Biting, oowwweee, not nice, had to stop).

IMO I think children need to learn other means of comfort. It's no longer about providing nutrition and a little love and comfort. I think it becomes about the woman's need for love and comfort. Not a healthy relationship IMO. Recently read an article in a magazine about 2 women who B/F their children one fed her girls to the ages of 8 and 9 the other was still feeding her 5 year old son. This is all just my opinion.
