The cover of the latest issue of Time magazine is sure to turn heads and draw comments from readers and critics. It shows 3-year-old kid suckling from his mother's breast on the cover air.
The image accompanies the magazine's cover story about attachment parenting — an approach whereby parents breastfeed and co-sleep with their children, in addition to wearing their children in slings.
The cover model, Jamie Lynne Grumet, is an LA mom who subscribes to attachment parenting, which has reportedly been on the rise over the last 20 years following the publication of "The Baby Book" by Dr. Bill Sears and his wife, Martha. “When you think of breast-feeding, you think of mothers holding their children, which was impossible with some of these older kids,” Schoeller explained. “I liked the idea of having the kids standing up to underline the point that this was an uncommon situation.”
