Linda Mtoba has clapped back at critics who commented on her breastfeeding choices.
The star is breastfeeding her 15-month-old daughter and is tired of people offering unsolicited opinions on her choices. Linda posted a lengthy clapback to her Instagram story to set the record straight and tell people not to parent-shame.
Due to the 24-hour-cycle of Instagram stories, the post is no longer available. But the words that Linda wrote in her clapback can be read below: “Whenever I post a pic or video of me feeding Bean I’m sent so many “Oh my word she’s still breastfeeding”, “Akasemdala for ukuncela”. Listen here and listen good. Firstly, YES and proudly so. WHO recommends that you breastfeed until 2. There are far too many benefits of breastfeeding to even count. (Google is your friend). It’s MY personal choice to breastfeed and to continue doing so well after 6 months or even a year, Bean is 15 months now (1 year 3 months).
She continued by saying: “I’ll stop when I’m ready to and when I feel Bean is ready to. For all the other breastfeeding mamas, DO YOU MAMA. DO WHAT’S BEST FOR YOU AND YOUR BABY. Don’t get discouraged, forget the naysayers and those who feel they have a right to an opinion about your life, body and parenting. STOP PARENT SHAMING. To each his own.”
