I was a vegetarian for six months and then I went vegan for almost a year. I was never a real big meat eater, and I thought I could do it. but when my family got together for Christmas and my mom made potato salad and veal, I cracked a little... haha :) but your mom shouldn't force you to eat a certain way! If you want to eat meat, do so!
Veganism isn't even healthy......don't let her force you to eat in a way you don't like and isn't healthy.
Unfortunately you're wrong. I'm a meat eater myself, but vegans also stay healthy in their own ways. Saying that it's not healthy is a myth. Even being an omnivore like I am isn't always healthy unless you get the organic foods which is more expensive.
How on earth is being vegetarian not healthy? Do you call a significantly lower risk of obesity and heart disease unhealthy? And no, we are in no way lacking in proteins and iron, anybody who doesn't eat properly can be deficient in anything. See, there are things called lentils and green veg, which are full of protein and iron respectively.
Actually theymiss out on over 23 different nutrients that aren't found in sustainable amounts out side of meats and dairies.
#113 "Organic" foods means about as much in quality and healthiness as "Angus" beef does. And that's diddly-squat.
That is bullshit. The only ones you ever hear about are iron, zinc, calcium, omega-3s, and vitamins A, D, and B12. Iron is only a problem because you need vitamin C with to absorb it properly (broccoli solves this issue), calcium is because of a lot of misinformation (the unnecessarily large daily recommendation, the idea that calcium comes from milk, stuff relating to sodium, etc.), and the others are just because they aren't found in typical veggies. Swiss chard and wheat germ are almost necessities, as well as a vegan B12 supplement. With those, you can account for all essential nutrients.
Does she realize the manure, the fertilizer for the crops, still contains the same kind of toxins?
I think she is referring to a spiritual poison.
Oh wow, that sucks. How dare your mom tell you not to eat certain things? Who does she think she is, your mother? In other words, stop being a baby. She's feeding you, and has hopefully done enough research into the health aspect to feed you well. Just because it isn't from animals doesn't mean it isn't adequate. There are MMA fighters who could strangle a bull and rip its legs off to cook it, but are vegetarian.
not to eat certain things is one deal. not to eat an ENTIRE food group or be punished is way too controlling
She is feeding them yes. But she sounds like she is going too far and being very controlling and unreasonable. And you shouldn't just do anything someone says just because they are parents.. think about it for yourself.
no more Bacon for you.
I'm trying to work out how Druidism got involved in that. They aren't exactly one big group of vegetarians. In fact I'm not sure veganism fits their lifestyle at all.
It doesn't. What little we know of Druidic practices suggests their diet was the same as that of the upper classes, since Druids served as keepers of the law as well as the rites. That means meat would be plentiful. The closest you'll get to New Age diet is that there would be little to no waste, but, really, that's not unique to Druids, simply the way to live given time and place.
As a druid, I can honestly say that vegetarianism fits NO WHERE into our beliefs. Still, sucks to be you, I'm gonna enjoy my bacon-wrapped chicken stuffed with chorizo and jalapenos.
Sucks being a kid sometimes, but at least it's a short time and teaches you how NOT to treat others

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.
