A mother has sparked confusion on social media after being seen breastfeeding her 17-year-old son, revealing that he still likes to breastfeed despite his age.

The video, which is circulating widely on the social media platform X (formerly known as Twitter), shows the mother calmly seated while her son, who is 17 years old, lies across her lap.

As he lies down, the mother quickly takes out her breast and hands it to her son, who then places it in his mouth to breastfeed.

This incident has shocked many viewers, who have flooded the comment section of the post to share their thoughts.
