I nursed Turkey Butt until she was 18 months old. Once she was a year old, nursing was really a comfort measure. But she was constantly coming on and off. That was ok with me, but this mom is taking the lives of her entire family in her hands when she drives with a distraction.

I live in Indiana. This wasn't the first time the woman has done this and she said she would do it again. She said her baby was hungry and needed to get her other childern to school. Her other childern were also not wearing any type of seatbelt. This was all over the news. I live in Indiana. This wasn’t the first time the woman has done this and she said she would do it again.
