[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As a meat eater, I think it would be totally appropriate for you to raise your child vegetarian at home. Let him know that whatever it is you're serving for dinner is what he will eat, or not. Same way we handle our kids, and sometimes they don't eat a lot for dinner. When he's out of the house or you go to restaurants, he's welcome to eat whatever he wants, within some reason, or eats whatever is given to him if at a friend's house for example. You could always prepare something special for him occasionally, such as hot dogs on his birthday. If you do choose to be vegetarian for moral reasons, it is important that you convey that to him so he can digest it and decide if he agrees with it eventually or not. Might be good to let him know that [b]we meat eaters are not necessarily immoral[/b], just choose to prioritize our lives differently. :-)[/quote] Not op but what if I do think it's immoral to eat meat? Then what should I tell my child?[/quote]
