From what I skimmed of the article, it reminds me of all the stuff I read about how breast feeding is so much better and how bad using formula is, how much smarter breastfed children are than bottlefed, and so one. Honestly most of us (my generation) were formula fed and I think we turned out half-way ok . Anyhow, I breastfed my oldest for as long as I could. About 2 months. She was over 9 pounds at birth and I just couldn't keep up with her. Never breastfed my youngest. My oldest has the allergies, asthma, and is LD. My youngest has seasonal allergies and is gifted. I did use soy with both because they had a tough time with the other. You have to do what you have to do. When it comes down to it, just remember mommy knows best.

"The first in time and the first in importance of the influences upon the mind is that of nature. Every day, the sun; and after sunset, night and her stars. Ever the winds blow; ever the grass grows."
