[quote=Anonymous]I have a similar story to a previous poster--I went vegan in high school and had a family who was very much non-vegan (several cherished family recipes with meat, also very Catholic parents who viewed the implied attitude towards animals as not exactly in line with their world view). My parents were very different than me in many important ways but nevertheless my mom really made an effort to learn recipes that were vegan and started cooking vegan. I think it went a long way in terms of making me feel like they really cared about me despite our many differences. I'm a little biased as I am still vegan myself but I think I would say the same about any weird dietary choice or lifestyle choice--if you can support it and not make your kid feel like an outsider for it, you won't regret the extra effort.
