im curious about raising kids as a vegan, now im only 23 so i still have quite a few years before i choose to have children or not but its definitely been something going around in my mind, are people and places accepting of children as vegans? i know if I were to have kids they would be raised 100% vegan and i know what others think does not matter at all, but i just have a humble curiosity about it all
My mother was vegan during her pregnancy with me, and I was reared vegan from birth.
came out really well, I believe?
By the time they are ten years old, all youngsters fed a western diet have fatty streaks in their arteries. Even if all other parents are doing it, it is abuse to give your kids heart disease.
To me, feeding your kids bits of dead animals is more maltreatment than anything else.
My son is approaching three years old and has always been cognitively far ahead of his peers. For his age, he has an excellent attention span and is quite vigilant. The “usual” childhood sickness has not affected him. He excels in gross motor skills and is powerful. He enjoys trying new dishes and consumes whatever we eat. Given that animals are companions, he believes it is absurd to consume them. He is also aware that the mother chicken owns the eggs, from which offspring are raised.
Since the child’s birth, my niece has raised him vegan. After seven years, the child is content and in good health. When my grandchild was five years old, we all switched, and now that he is fourteen, he is tall as a tree, healthy, and intelligent. Eats everything we eat, which is primarily Italian food, and we only give her vitamin D and B12. Every two years, all family members should have blood work done to ensure everyone is healthy and strong. Much obliged.
You’re alright. We have three vegan children, my wife is a doctor, and I work as a nurse. Ask them to choose a protein source they enjoy (mine is chocolate soy milk) and have them take a multivitamin that includes vitamin B-12, as all kids should in any case. Never take advice on diets from random meatheads.
Abuse of children They are the ones who, by feeding their kids, condone abuse. Have you also noticed how most of these folks raise blimps? Their child seemed to be about to pop at any moment. I appreciate your reaching out and kind parenting of your children. I’m not a parent and I’ll never desire children, but I appreciate you raising yours well.
I’ve been vegan for almost five years with my spouse. We may actually give birth to our baby boy today, fingers crossed! However, the baby has been healthy the entire pregnancy, and everything has gone well.

Yesterday, I was considering this very subject, but it was too late for me to write a post.
Thank you everybody for your responses as well.
Excellent starting point for a conversation I will have with my spouse
My 14-year-old son is an amazing guy who enjoys skateboarding and basketball in high school. My son is free to eat anything he likes, but I don’t cook any animal products at home because I have been a vegan for years. He thus consumed my vegan cuisine at home and his own food at school and while out and about. He has been a vegan for the past year or so and has become increasingly conscious of the ethical implications. He was overweight and developing pimples. He’s growing into a strong, healthy, and kind young man thanks to a nutritious diet, regular exercise, and puberty. He asked me about soy’s estrogen content last night when we were eating tofu. I
With the exception of the newborn section, our stories are identical. My child is large and healthy, having been vegan since birth. Doctors gave us the runaround about it, but after numerous blood tests, everything was fine.
