You're talking to an exclusively formula fed (former) child who taught herself to read at age 2 (if my mother is to be believed); who never suffered any lasting illness outside of the common flu and occasional ear infection as a child. This was before formula was re-formulated to include the same DHA found in breast milk that's attributed to healthy brain development.
My husband, also formula fed in that same era, could have gone to MIT if he'd chosen to. He chose a different path but strangely, enjoys buying textbooks - and reading them for fun - on theoretical physics.
I'm now the mother of a child who breastfed for only a month and was exclusively formula fed after I failed, who is now just turned 3 and communicates verbally at a first grader's level; who is able to express herself artistically at that same level; who creates intricate stories and acts them out far surpassing her peers imaginative play; and who, BTW, is healthy as a horse and has been her entire short life so far.
Whatever "evidence" you're citing I would love to see as I see no daily evidence of this in our own lives or those of her formula fed friends. So, wrong argument. Try again.
