    OFCORSE, i want my boy to be healthy :)

    Im a young proud vegan paps! and my son is now one year and 5 months old! and he is growing so well, walking, running, climbing, talking. and all this in a vegan lifestyle/diet .. parents do what they think is right for their child. so until my son is old enough to make his own choice he will eat vegan! and if he chooses than to eat meat, so be it..

    if everyone would be vegan/vegetarian the world would be a better place! START with your self!

    love

    I'm vegan and if I'd had kids I would have raised them vegetarian the first couple of years at least, unless I was 100% sure my baby would get everything s/he needed from a vegan diet, would then have switched to vegan probably, and when they were old enough to decide for themselves it's up to them, not sure I would have cooked meat or fish for them though if they were too young to cook for themselves, if they're teenage they can cook meat for themselves :S

    MY HOUSE MY FOOD!

  • I don't believe in reproduction.

    That might be sort of O/T...

  • I'd raise them meatless just as I'd not buy Bratz dolls for them, and just as I'd raise them under the same roof as me. I'd never be limp enough to raise them under any daft societal norms. I can't imagine the pressure you'd need to make me do otherwise.

    The only worry would be nutritional and that can be sorted. You don't have to go far out of your way for that.

  • Feminize said:
    You people say you won't raise your child to be veg, because its his choice and it's wrong to force him to believe in the same things as you.

    But it's not like eating meat is the natural thing, and being veg is some extremist ideology. It's just not murdering animals. And I won't raise my son to eat meat, just as I won't raise him to murder people.

    Besides, why would you poison your child with animal products, do you hate him?


    Cheers to that !

    If I ever have kids, then yes, I probably would.
    Mostly because I have no idea how to prepare or cook meat.

  • vegetarian. I NEVER eat meat so it won't be coming from me. Vegan is too strict to do ALL the time, like in foreign countries, etc. But it's not like I would drink cows milk anyway .

    Well, as I will be the mom I probably will be doing the most cooking and grocery shopping in the early years of my children, so they will not be provided any meat, dairy, eggs etc. But, my bf is a meat-eater (not very passionate one and eats the vegan stuff I cook with an appetite) so I believe I can't make the decision on my own. If he cooks non-vegan stuff that should be alright and my children can make the decision to drop animal products on their own. I will have provided all the information for them.

    Tonzura koite!
