Law! UAE Women To Breastfeed Babies For Two Years Or Get Sued

Women in the United Arab Emirates have been mandated to feed their new born babies for at least two years, a new Child Rights Law which just became effective this month states. Part of their new Child Rights Law, requires new moms to breastfeed their babies for two full years or their husbands could sue them if they fail to do so. The law furthermore states that, it is a human right for a child to be breast fed, and that nursing is now mandatory in the country. Some organizations have already been backing the law up with Quran, while others have kept mute.
