Breastfeeding a crime?

"Breastfeeding is now apparently a second-degree felony in Texas, or at least memorializing such an event in a family photo.

Two children were taken away from their parents after a photo of a 12-month-old baby with his lips on his mother's nipple was developed at a local drug store and then reported to authorities by the shop's clerk. No experts were consulted, no evaluations were made, the children were simply whisked away and the parents charged with the second-degree felony of "sexual performance of a minor.""
