Most people today don’t even really know why they’re having kids, other than the pressure to have children because everyone else is having them. Throughout history the strength of the children meant the culture’s survival was guaranteed. The children would be charged with defending the society from invasion and expanding its influence. Breastfeeding is mandatory for strong children, both physical strength and intellectual capacity. A society that doesn’t adhere to the rituals and processes that produce strong children, is a culture not interested in surviving. Our answers are in the past, not in the future with science and medicine. No amount of science can make a sick child healthy or a weak child strong. Invest where it counts. Produce healthy children.
