[quote=Anonymous]I would make a list of foods she has to willingly and regularly eat before she is allowed to give up meat. So maybe make a list of 50 things (looks for sources of iron, protein, etc. that are tough for vegetarians), and have her try each thing at least 30 times or until she has chosen 20 things from the list that she will now eat. At that age I would explain to her the problem and make her in charge of figuring it out. She can't live of of fruit and veggies and carbs, and even eggs and dairy only go so far. If she's going to give up meat, she needs to add in a lot of other things.[/quote]
