Well - as a way to "return to the teat" - I buy that completely.  No one
can get too much love and nurturing and that's a fact.  The desire to
give and receive nurturing builds interdependence and is a survival
trait, as we are "pack" animals, and don't do well as lone-beasts.

And I think most nursing done after the age of two, anywhere, is
probably more for emotional and bonding purposes than nutritional.
