Just a qualifier. Some women can and still do breast feed til they turn 3 (or longer), especially if it's their youngest or if they space kids 3+ yrs apart. Away-Working Women can "express" milk to refrigerate for work-at-home husbands or nannies to feed.
Story said "was still breastfeeding" as if that's a temporal measure or dependency status. I wasn't trying to excuse any of the Trump's heinous conduct. They caged babies during their first term, after all.
It CAN and MIGHT be a dependency status in this case. Obviously you've never had to feed an infant who will ONLY ACCEPT breast, not bottle. I'd suggest not adding qualifiers that have nothing to do with the point of the story. You sound like an ass quite frankly.
So we agree CAN and MIGHT! My feminist creds are tops. I've pushed to end huge gender pay gap and male ghetto of Wall St., Silicone Valley, and craft union jobs to the press, thousands of students, and as radio talk guest. My spouse breast fed both kids, one for 3 yrs! Not all guys are dicks.
The point, as another person noted, is that your comment is completely unnecessary and reads with the intent to diminish the seriousness of a breastfeeding mom/baby separation. It's total mansplaining.

Shitler administration is evil and inhumane (that is their mission).
