Well that is kinda weird, about those girls! Perhaps there was some family situation that made them behave like that? Because at 7 kids are a lot more restrained, they are shy of even talking about boobs, let alone grab them! I breastfed both of mine until they were todlers (they say they even remember the taste of breastmilk) and whenever they see me in a bra or someone on tv insinuating breast (or anything that reminds them of nakedness) they go like eeewww! And they are 7 and 10 at the moment. The other moms I know who breastfed for a long time tell me their kids are the same.
Anyway, why do you think this is a difficult decision? I think you should just do what comes natural to you once you have a baby. I had a lot of ideas about bringing up kids before I became a mom, and found out they were completely wrong for me once my first one was born, and luckily my husband supported me in the decisions I took because otherwise we would´ve had a lot of conflicts! I find that it´s true that moms know best what their kids need, they are just biologically wired that way.
My mom wasn´t able to breastfeed me but that didn´t affect my decision to breastfeed mine, and she was always amazed at how easy it was to take care of a baby that way. When I was a baby I had a lot of trouble adjusting to formula, had a lot of rashes and stomach aches and it was just very traumatic for all of us. My grandma, who had 4 kids, was also amazed when she saw how easy things turned out for me thanks to breastfeeding.
I think perhaps nowadays it isn´t mainstream to opt for breastfeeding, there is some kind of idea that it´s obscene of whatever, but that´s just terribly silly! I mean breasts were intended to use for breastfeeding, not for lapdancing, haha.
