Should breast milk be given to animals? My mother-in-law says one thing, I read another.

The real reply from the in-app AI advisor

You should absolutely never give your breast milk to any animal. Human milk is a unique food made for human baby's needs — it's not suitable for animals, just as animal milk isn't suitable for babies. Whatever your mother-in-law says, the medical view here is clear: breast milk is only for your baby. It should never be given to any animal for health reasons.

If you're uncomfortable or your mother-in-law is pushing the issue, sharing written information from a pediatrician might help.
