She added, ‘Charlotte also pretends to do her makeup; my son pretends to work on his vehicles and fix things from watching his father. Isn't that how it is? Your child mimicking normal daily behaviour?’

When a mum posted a picture of her two-year-old daughter Charlotte pretending to breastfeed a doll, she never expected the shaming that was to follow.
Sharing her story on the Breastfeeding Mama Talk Facebook page, the woman said after posting the picture, she woke up to a message describing it as ‘some of the nastiest sh*t of my life.’
In response to the comments, the woman wrote: ‘Breastfeeding is something that is natural and is normal.
‘A baby putting a bottle to its dolls mouth, they are feeding their baby doll, correct? There's no difference. I do not feel the need to correct Charlotte because breastfeeding is wrong? She said her baby wanted to eat, so she fed her.'
