或認為母奶寶寶比較黏人、不容易戒「夜奶」(半夜哭鬧討奶喝),所以稍微大一點就要幫他斷奶,以免「養成壞習慣」。

粘人 is an amazing word. When the subject is human, it is pejorative. When the subject is a pet, it is not pejorative any more, even slightly approbative. So when you say someone is 粘人 you can say s/he is clingy in English. When you say a dog is 粘人 you should say it loves playing with men (not even needy).
