I've heard stuff like this happening, but I haven't seen it myself. Who am I to judge this mother for not weaning her daughter? She seems to believe very much that what she is doing is the right thing and best for her child's well-being. To that, I say let science and psychology decide that one.
However, I do imagine a potential tug-of-war between mother and daughter. The mother believes eventually the breast-feeding will stop and that her daughter's desire to grow up will overcome her need for milk. On the other hand, the daughter can't imagine ever getting weaned. She wants to continue forever.
Now I know most of you are going to say the mother's expectation is logical. But what if it doesn't happen? What if her daughter really does want to be breast-fed at the age of 24? That sounds insane, I know, but this blog would not exist if such events did not happen.
Suspend your disbelief for a moment. What if another documentary is made 16 years later about the daughter still being breastfed?

how are there no comments for this?
no surprise. i think this is a quite natural and healthy relation.
I am all for breastfeeding. I think it's a wonderful way to bond with your new baby as well as provide them with the best nutrients available. I think it may even be fine to nurse them until they are maybe 2 if they want. But, once they have all their teeth and can walk and you are trying to help them establish their independence, it's time to wean them. Most do it on their own long before they are 8. That is so weird. I am not sure why anyone would encourage their child to do that. And I do think it is encouraged. I have never heard of an 8 year old still nursing. Even the tribes in 3 world countries don't nurse that long. There are plenty of ways for a child to bond with their mom after nursing has stopped and to feel comforted.
This woman is clearly mentally ill and she is sexually abusing her children. Imagine those girls as teenagers they will be outcasts.
......and what if the child were male? Would THAT be acceptable or sick?
