He tells WENN, "It's fantastic!I love the smell of nappies. It's been the most wonderful thing that's probably ever happened to me after meeting David. Surprisingly it's been very relaxing because this little soul that you're feeding and you're changing and you're bathing and you're telling bedtime stories to is a blank canvas and all it needs is love and nurturing and it's just the most wonderful feeling."

Erm...aren't you forgetting a little detail called BREAST MILK!?
And no, milking David won't do at all.

I didn't see him mention formula either, do you? Nope, ALL a child needs is love and nurturing...Elton views on child rearing seem to be a lot like his supporters views on everything - all airy fairy ideals, but no substance.

Umm YOU mentioned it...formula feeding is just as useful as breast milk...

Well, it's not REALLY as good is it?

I mean, some people say it is, but they only say that to avoid offending those who are too selfish to breast feed. Thankfully, I have no such qualms about calling a spade a spade.

But there are still a lot of female heterosexuals who feed their child formula, rather than breast milk...So if it's ok for women to use formula, then it's ok for male couples to use formula too...

The difference is Angelina Jolie feeds her children, not like Elton who says, and I repeat ALL it needs is love and nurturing.

It might seem obvious to you and I, but who know what the decades of drug abuse have done to his noggin?

NOBODY knows how their offspring is going to turn out. If you reach a few "milestones" without hassles you can pat yourself on the back.

It doesn't mean that the little cherub who was so cute at 2 isn't going to turn out as a serial killer or a terrorist or even a wife basher. You hope you have done a good job but nobody ever tells you that you did and it is pure LUCK if you get your snotty teenagers through to young marrieds with kids, without going insane yourself.

LOL, Wes...dare I suggest that it could be your noggin that is malfunctioning or is otherwise deficient...!?

Seriously, what is it with the literal linear thinking!?

Either you do not have the lateral capacity to interpret metaphors and extrapolate - or you think it is funny to pretend not to...

HOW does Angelina 'feed' her children, when she hasn't been pregnant???

Angelina uses exactly the same 'method' to feed her kids, as Elton John does.......Formula...

Yes, it is not REALLY as good - but there are many reasons why women don't breast feed and 'selfishness' is not as high on the list as you might assume...

PS Both of my children were breast-fed for over 18 months.

No no elton, was quite clear

ALL

it needs is love and nurturing. Show me where he mentions food, clothing, shelter...
But Iit's to be expected - decades of cocaine abuse, and the onset of senile dementia can give a man strange ideas about children exisitng on love alone.
