"Before I'd condemn the woman I'd like to see proof that she's harming the kid..."

OK, at what point does it become child abuse?
When the boy is 10, 12, 14?
When would YOU step in, (providing you could do it legaly)?
Or would you just ignore it?
Tough call, but obviously at some point something must be done (15, 17?)

When it's her turn to bring the after-game snacks for the Little League team?

I know a guy who was bathed by his mommy until he was 12 and slept with mommy until he was 16 (daddy slept in another bed in another part of the house). I never did ask if he was breastfed and for how long.

Let's just say he turned out a little....um...twisted.
