thank you for such a wonderful post! I hope if I have kids one day that I’ll have a partner who doesn’t pressure me to feel the kids meat. It’s hard enough having parents and extended family who are convinced I’m “suffering” from “poor nutrition”. I admire your strength to stand up for the right thing in a world that would rather blindly follow tradition than consider what they’re doing. THANK YOU.

Thanks Jolia for your interesting article. I have been a raw vegan for quite some time now and currently pregnant with my first child. For most, my lifestyle is very strange and hard to understand but Ive never felt healthier in all my life. Now I can’t help but wonder how I’m going to deal with the family when they try to feed my child ice cream or hot dogs. Birthday parties is something we’ve already had to deal with a few months ago with my husband’s daughter. I was appaled to see the food they served the children. It makes one wonder how they actually grow these days with that kind of junk food.

I am one of those vegetarians that never thought about people being born vegetarian. How interesting! I love all the questions that I get with young people about vegetarianism. I had my niece and nephew over recently and made them dinner. They’d never had chickpeas, chard or kale. I felt so lucky to be able to introduce them to such amazing foods. I love this post!

A fabulous post! I have a 14 month old son that I plan to raise as a vegetarian and often get much (not wanted) commentary from people… it sometimes makes me even question myself! but i’m happy to read your story and be reassured i’m doing the right thing, for myself, my son, my family! Many Thanks!

Awesome, beautiful post! I love this! I am a vegan, I wish I could say I have been one from the womb, but I can not. I hope to raise my children vegan or vegetarian. This post was wonderful, thanks for sharing!
