For booster seats with high height to accomodate older/taller children, the Sunshine Kids (or now known as Diono) Monterey and the Britax Parkway are good options. The Britax Frontier is actually the booster seat with the highest shoulder-belt slots but it is a 5-pt harness seat convertible into a booster seat thereafter, so it would not make sense to buy one just as a booster but might be a good option to consider for those shopping for a 5-pt harness/booster combination seat.

Would you say it was disgusting if you were watching kittens feed from their mother? Would you tell the mother cat to “Have some dignity and discretion” I'm pretty sure you wouldn't! We are all just feeding our babies, get a grip!! If you don't like it, cover your own face! How can you possibly compare going to the toilet with eating?

The milk itslef actually smells really gross. And also, the sicking sound is soooo annoying (it's like smacking on chewing-gum). I hate the sound, smell, and sight of it. All I g=can thinnk when I see it happen in public is "Have some dignity and discretion". Just because pooping is a natural body function, too, doesn't meaning I want to watch it, smell it, or hear the sound of it occurring. Yuck. I am absolutely sickened by public breastfeeding.

I haven't read it (although I'm curious to). I think you're absolutely right that it's just a cry for attention to stir up controversy and sell more magazines. Ahh American journalism at its finest. When you have nothing to say, sensationalize! It’s funny to me that I’ve seen this cover posted all over the place, but no one even comments on the article.

I know that it's supposed to be inflammatory so that it will attract more readers to it. Shocking sells, we all know that. Sadly,the number of people who will make a snap judgment based on the photo alone far outnumbers that of the people who will actually read the the article and take something from it. In general, it's going to be a fail. I love the notion, hate the picture. I know that it’s supposed to be inflammatory so that it will attract more readers to it. Shocking sells, we all know that.

Mothering is hard, no matter if you follow Baby Wise, if you are more of an AP follower, or if you made the ultimate gift of placing your child in the arms of an adoptive family. As far as the picture goes, my son (15mths) like to catch a drink while standing on our bed and me standing next to the bed (certainly makes getting ready difficult). Mothers need to support each other not attack each other. We can all learn from each other without judging each other for choices that we have made when it comes to breastfeeding - especially extended breastfeeding or tandem nursing.
