Rumer Willis shared a video on Instagram, breastfeeding her nearly 3-year-old daughter, Louetta Isley Thomas Willis, while addressing critics.

In response to judgment about her parenting, Willis emphasized the importance of boundaries in personal matters, distinguishing between "my business" and "your business."

She highlighted the challenges faced by mothers who breastfeed beyond infancy, citing the World Health Organization's recommendations and the stigma attached to extended breastfeeding.

Coco Austin, who breastfed her daughter until age 6, defended her choice as a form of bonding and nutrition, emphasizing the emotional connection it fosters.

Willis also opened up about the difficulties of single parenthood, acknowledging the emotional toll it can take despite the love and joy her daughter brings.
