How do I respond to people who pressure me to wean my toddler? My mother-in-law is pressuring me to stop breastfeeding my 19-month-old daughter. She says she's too old to nurse and breast milk isn't good for him now that she's over a year old. They also think she behaves too much like a baby and is too attached to me because I nurse her. But we are just not ready to give it up. What should I do?

I'm in the same situation but good thing we don't leave with either of our parents so I just pretend to listen but at home, I still breastfeed my 1 and a half. For my youngest, I am going to breastfeed for as long as I can. haha...
