Do you have any evidence that it is NOT risky, besides how you "feel" about it? Every major medical institution around the world acknowledges that formula is risky... what do you know that they don't?
"Secondly, this is exactly what I meant by the term being relative!"
So you do think sttn at 17 mo is early?
"Comparing a person who drinks alcohol to a person who drinks formula is pretty much comparing alcohol to formula."

Yes, there's quite a distinction between insanity manifested as post-partum psychosis and the more common "baby blues." In one case, mom needs medical intervention. In the other, she just needs time. In neither case is formula the recommended course of treatment, though I can certainly see how it's a temporary remedy. However, weaning a child is not addressing the issue. It's still going to pop up again until the root of the problem is discovered.
