Today, my mom found a new fad, and now styles herself as some kind of modern druid. Normally I'd just roll my eyes and deal with it, except she's forced the entire family to go vegetarian, threatening harsh punishments if we refuse to stop "poisoning" our bodies. FML

Poisoning your bodies with what? Protein? Sustenance? She doesn't have the right to force you to go vegetarian, OP! I'm guessing your family feels the same. Gang up on her, for lack of a better phrase.

one of us....one of us! sorry OP, sucks when other peoole impose thier will on other people.

Use it to learn to adapt to your environment.... Not such a bad thing not killing animals for food... Sounds like good karma to me

Unfortunately the killing of the animals will never end and to me it seems like more of an insult for them to get killed and then be thrown away then at least be used to feed a family.

Me and my daughter just ate fresh deer that I killed yesterday. You going to cry now?

What was the point of saying that? Rude.

Tell her to f*** off. That's what I'd do, she has no right to tell you what you can and cannot eat

ORRR she can just tell her mother that she respects her opinion but that means that she expects her mother to respect hers in return, and that she has separate beliefs from her so she won't be continuing the lifestyle her mother was trying to force her into...

Go directly to the king for protection. When his royal subject asks, do you want fries with that?, say yes. Not because your king is forcing them on you, but because he allows you to have it your way.

Oh shit you made me choke on an orange, I found that way funnier than I probably should have.

Maybe show her how much pesticides are put on vegetables that might change things...

she's from Seattle isn't she? I used to live there, and beieve me, there are more vegetarians, hipsters, and cosplayers there than comicon

nothing wrong with cosplayers.

Also, what do vegetarians have to do with Comic Con? Unless you meant that there are more hipsters and vegetarians there than there are cosplayers at Comic Con, or more vegetarians than there are hipsters and cosplayers at Comic Con.

Maybe instead of telling your child not to do it was not the course of action to take. Telling a child not to do something, will just make the wanna do it even more.

I hope that you know that TRUE vegetarians have to supplement their diet with protein capsules

Uh...no? I'm a vegetarian and guess what? No protein capsules. Better yet? Every time I get my blood done, the results are good (Im not in the best shape even before this). I make sure what I eat has what I need. The whole "you can only get protein from meat" is complete bs and a myth. Look up what foods have protein and then say something. No low iron, either. Get educated, please.

Vegetarians are the ones killing off all the necessary veggies for the tasty animals that we eat, sorry but perhaps a harsh reality of skinny models will prove a point to your mom would help.

I was forced to be a vegetarian until I moved out. I feel your pain OP
