“Obviously, breast-feeding is not the same as carrying on an extramarital affair. But when a mother gives her breasts to her son and takes them away from her husband, the effect on the marriage can feel the same.”
Ah, I see. “Jack, come back with daddy’s boobies this instant!”
It’s probably an unpopular opinion, but I sort of agree with him. Some become so attached to their children - even saying they are “in love” with their child - that their marriage does suffer. In the quote above, I think the key part is “takes them away from her husband”, not “gives her breasts to her son”. Balance is key and unfortunately, motherhood seems to have become an all-or-nothing proposition.

Did you read the comments next to his little fairy-tale? You’re not the only person pissed at him.
I’ve never seen his show, because, as I thought (and now KNOW), my ideas on what is acceptable and a Rabbi’s ideas are from two different universes.
