A 52-year-old mother who proudly breastfeeds her six-year-old child by day during school hours has admitted that she has 'been called a paedophile' because of her extreme breastfeeding practices. But Maha Al Musa, who lives in Byron Bay with her three children and Scottish-born musician partner John Hamilton, says she has never been personally attacked when sitting in public with Aminah openly breastfeeding. But she believes the criticism of her on Facebook and elsewhere online is an attack on females.
'People can say whatever they like. I know what I am doing as a mother,' Ms Al Musah said.
'I've raised three beautiful healthy intelligent well-adjusted children and that's all that matters to me. 'I have never had anyone come to me when I am breastfeeding and say a nasty word against me. My heart goes out to people who criticise me and I respect people's criticism. But this isn't about breastfeeding children. This is about attack and disrespect of the feminine,' she concluded.
