Agreed.  Women have been breast feeding since breasts were invented.  There isn't actually anything about it that should make us uncomfortable.  The weirder thing is that we've grown to think there's something weird about it.

....although I admit when I saw a lady breast feeding a 5 yr old I was taken aback.  They say it wouldn't have been all that abnormal in the distant past and that there are health benefits like sharing antibodies and such.  But still, after age 2 I wonder how normal it really is.

If she isn't making a big deal out of it, you shouldn't either. If she was concerned about it, she would have probably done something different.

    At a house doing an install.  A mother of many (I.E. not the first
    child) sits down and starts nursing while you are there.  She doesn't
    seem to care you are there.  There is no 'extra' covering
    involved.  Are
    you allowed to talk to her?  Do you stand in front of her and
    maintain
    eye contact, or stand behind her at a respectful distance? What's the
    proper protocol?
