Is it better to breast feed than to bottle feed and I only ask this as my wife is soon to give birth and I would much rather take your advise than the doctors as you are all so wise and know everything on this channel of religion and spirits.
Breast is best ,but noy all mothers can breast feed she will need help and support if this her first baby, and if it doesnt work for her then she shouldnt be made to feel a falaure or guilty.
///Most convicted criminals have been bottle fed and not breast fed.///
How do convicted criminals know whether or not they were breast fed? How on earth was that statistic collected?
Sandy; //could we not safely draw the inference that if a child hasn't been properly nourished it will later turn to a life of crime? //
Are you using the word 'nourished' in a very broad sense? If not the implication would rate most of the third world as criminal.
I didn't want to talk biology and statistics but I think at this stage in the thread it is worth looking at the research that has been carried out on the health of the mother and child and in particular infant mortality .
Here is a site which raises these issues . Nothing religious I'm afraid .
