Love is equal parts attachment and suffering, and so one needs to search for a source of truth and grace big enough to embrace them both.

As someone who spends approximately 38% of the day with her boob in someone's mouth, I took particular interest in the recent TIME magazine kerfuffle over attachment parenting.

"Are you mom enough?" Seriously? TIME magazine should be ashamed. As if Moms aren't hard enough on themselves.

In the same way we should avoid religious extremism and political extremism, perhaps we ought to avoid parenting extremes as well. Inappropriate helicopter parenting potentially snuffs out a child's initiative, individuality, and sense of self. Attachment parenting runs the same risk.

We may practice attachment parenting (or not), we may chose the bottle over the breast, but we are all bound by the fact that we never, ever feel like we can do enough for our special needs child(ren).

By now we are almost certain you have all seen the controversial breastfeeding cover of "Time" magazine, which features a 26-year old mother with her ...

Last week, Time's breastfeeding cover got people talking when they featured a young, attractive, thin, blond woman with her son just chilling on her boob like characters in a Spike Lee film chilled on an apartment building stoop.

Putting your beliefs on the line is admirable, but using your child to provoke a public discussion of your personal agenda is another matter entirely.
Jess Wilson | Posted 05.14.2012
I have no problem with a respectful discussion of different types of parenting techniques, or about breastfeeding's benefits and our cultural squeamishness about it. But a respectful discussion never starts with a calculated attempt to shock.

Why are we so quick to criticize 'extended breastfeeding' (even the term smacks of clinical judgment) when we have no such impulse to crack down on the myriad ways that adults fuel their own oral fixations?
Lara M. Gardner | Posted 05.14.2012
It doesn't surprise me that breastfeeding has come to the fore in the public consciousness. It fits right in with the resurrection of the war on women.

As my first Mother's Day approaches, I want to thank Amalía for making me a mom. And to tell Time magazine, and Elisabeth Badinter, and everyone else who thinks I'm doing it wrong, that I'm being the best one I can.
Jeanne Ponessa Fratello | Posted 05.11.2012
Not every mom is as visible as the mom on the cover of TIME magazine, but there are plenty of moms who enjoy this time with their little ones and have no set deadline for stopping.

When I saw that picture for the first time I almost threw my phone in disgust, but I didn't' want to disturb my 2-year-old, who was about to fall asleep while sucking on my breast. Let me explain.

The woman on the cover, while as stunningly beautiful as the real Jamie, doesn't reflect the inclusive, intelligent, loving, nurturing, non-judgmental woman I know.

I can't get behind the cover photo, if only because if we're talking about what may be best for a child, we can at least agree that kids deserve to have their privacy respected.

One of the biggest challenges to juggling all the balls necessary in parenting is the need to understand the importance of 'good enough'.
