Never was all that into it.<br />Anyway, I say let her eat vegetables (like that take off of Marie Antoinette - I try). It's good that she has principals that call her to action. You never know how long the veggie thing will last anyway.Larryhttp://larrydbernstein.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6464656546253078118.post-6320990546977394592014-06-08T11:38:18.378-04:002014-06-08T11:38:18.378-04:00Your situation reminds me the book of Safran Foer,...Your situation reminds me the book of Safran Foer, who wrote it exactly to know what was the best for his son. I think it is an incredible book and I really suggest it to you :) It is full of facts that need to be known! Title is "Eating Animals". <br /><br />Hope it helpsAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08076052634569349643noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6464656546253078118.post-21650733562114121522014-06-07T11:27:04.247-04:002014-06-07T11:27:04.247-04:00Thanks Kathy.

So, we'll adjust and see what works.

I also have pushed that vegetarianism is actually eating a lot of veggies, not just no meat. Also, start your meal plan with a veggie instead of the protein. Good luck!Kathy Spignardonoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6464656546253078118.post-35861767672852682212014-06-07T07:57:28.359-04:002014-06-07T07:57:28.359-04:00Thanks, Chris.

Could also help win her back, eating beans and sweet potatoes while the rest of us slather grilled pork loin with dad's Chimichurri sauce.

I don't think you need to cook a separate meal, maybe just an additional side to provide a protein that is not meat. I understand chick peas and beans are often used as substitutes.<br /><br />As much of a challenge it could be I would support my kids in there beliefs.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03795733441806125080noreply@blogger.com
