My one friend breastfed her last daughter until she was 2-1/2.  For her 
daughter, it was definitely a comfort thing and she needed the comfort when 
she was two.  She has gone on to be quite the social butterfly, who excels 
in gymnastics and is currently in the high school play, where she is a 
freshman.

My other friend breastfed hers until about 3.  She is currently on baby #7. 
Her children have all turned out to be strong confident people, too!  I 
think she even breastfed her first son, way past three.  I can't remember 
now if she did actually tell me how long or not.   It might have possibly 
been up to 5 or 6, but it certainly wasn't his only form of food, at that 
point and probably also was a comfort thing!  I didn't know her back then, 
though.  He is currently 20 now!
