Today, I saw a woman breastfeeding her child at the local park. That would have been just fine if the child wasn't at least 8 years-old. FML

Autumn: Leaves and Laughter
When the leaves fall, the laughter rises. Discover autumn stories as crisp as dried leaves!
Today, I was at the mall with my young daughter. I hate pooping in public but I really had to go so I brought her in with me. Thinking we were alone, I started to go and my daughter yelled, "Good job Mommy, you're using the potty like a big girl!" I then heard laughing. FML
Today, I got a new babysitting job. Every time the little girl goes to the bathroom, she screams and cries until I wipe her. She's 7 years old. FML
Today, I realized that my 3 year-old son, who is being potty trained, has better aim standing up to pee than his 30 year-old father. FML
Today, I found out that my boyfriend of two years has a beautiful daughter. That's cool, except she's one year old. FML
Today, as I waited to fly home, a very attractive woman smiled and gestured towards the seat next to me. However, a hyperactive child and his mother barged past into said empty seats. The woman really hit it off with the guy behind, while I was stuck listening to a kid scream at Angry Birds. FML
Today, my mother stopped speaking to me because I won’t let her babysit anymore. Her idea of babysitting is to sit my daughter alone with a tablet and a pile of sugary junk food for 7 hours straight. FML
Today, a kid on a bike passed me and commented on my "big fat butt." Recognizing him from the neighborhood, I told my husband to go speak to his parents about the inappropriate comment. It turns out his father is the man who yesterday commented on my "big bouncing tits." FML
Today, my 16-year-old daughter handed me the picture she wants TV reports to use if ever she happens to get kidnapped. FML
Today, I witnessed a large woman pee on a pregnancy test in the middle of a Walmart parking lot, clean herself off, then wander around with the test hanging out of her mouth, waiting for her result. Where in the name of Christ do these people come from? FML
Today, an elderly man had to give me money to pay for my grocery bill because my sister broke down crying in the store as I didn't have enough money to pay for both her milkshake and cookies. She's 19. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

As weird as that is... how exactly does that make YOUR life suck? Think about the kids life in a few more years.

Because it is absolutely nauseating to see?

If the kid is old enough to shave then it's time to be concerned.

I think once the child can walk up to the mother and pull her shirt down its time to start weaning.

OP, you are a moron. Breastfeeding is perfectly normal and natural. Even Jesus was breastfed. I think you are jealous that the child got the boob while you got the bottle because your mother refused to make the time for you. For those of you who say "If the child has teeth or can ask for it they are too old. You are also dumb. That's like saying they are too old for an apple because breastmilk provides complete nutrition.

They are not dumb. They just have normal standards of decency. It is not natural to breastfeed a 8 year old child. Heck, breastfeeding a 5 year old is questionable.

They are not moron. They just have normal standards of decency. It is not natural to breastfeed a 8 year old. The fact that the breasts stop producing milk long before then proves that it is not natural. Also saying they are too old when they have teeth is not dumb, it's common sense. Milk was never a food that was made to drink past infancy. Animals have enough sense to stop drinking it. Even Jesus quit drinking it. Also you infer that the OP is jealous with no grounds whatsoever to base that on. You are the stupid one. You want respect? Learn to give it first. I would have been more respectful if you had been.

Oh and another thing. That child may end up with severe bullying because of this. Ever consider that?

246, the breasts do not stop producing milk until a mother stops feeding. Just an FYI, seeing as you stated that they did. Breasts work on a supply and demand scale - when there is a demand, there will be a supply :)

246- Some babies are BORN with a tooth already. So because of that they should not be fed milk? It's standard procedure to feed a child breastmilk or formula until at least age 1. So obviously a child will get teeth before age one, but they should DEFINITELY still be fed milk until age 1 at the minimum! The WHO recommends breastfeeding until age 2 though. Please look this info up before posting inaccurate facts.

No they don't. I loathe them.

It's just weird because some kids have a good memory, my little sister can remember when she was 3, and I think If you breast feed a child past a certain point they might remember it, I don't know about you but I don't want memories of sucking on my mothers breast, I'm all for breast feeding, even in public but I think after a certain point it's inappropriate.
