Yep, my mom was, because she was a vegetarian too at the time!. (She isn't anymore :-( ) My dad didn't try to stop me, but he still waved hot dogs in my face and stuff!. :-) Great job keeping animals as friends, not food!Www@FoodAQ@Com
my parents were really good about it, to the point where my mom was willing to cook separate things!. I think if you're mature about it and they understand that you have valid reason, then hopefully they'll accept it!. also, it's never a good idea to criticize them for still eating meat; it just makes people annoyed with you!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
Speaking as a parent, if my child had done the research involved on a healthy non-meat-based diet and was truly incorporating high protein foods like dried beans and peas, getting enough calcium and iron, and taking a multivitamin, I'd have no trouble w/ it!.
If they just quit eating meat, and took no measures to replace that nutrition, I'd have a problem w/ it!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

No!. But that was a good thing!. It motivated me to grow up and move out the second I could legally sign a rental agreement and get a job!. Actually, I was a bit too young, but landlords and employers and banks somehow looked the other way and I managed just fine, but that's another story!. Now they're cool about it, on the rare occasions when I see them!. It just takes time!.!.!.!.!.!.!. 9 years to be exact!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

um!.!.!. not exactly but i just refused to eat meat (it was sorta like a hunger strike) and they didn't think i'd last so they shrugged it off and ignored me!.!.!. now that they know its going to last (its been 3-4 months) they accomodate me and make meat free food!.!.!. but my grandma is still unhappy! lolWww@FoodAQ@Com
This should not be possible, why wouldn't parents be supportive in these matters!? I would be fully supportive, whether pescetarian, vegetarian, or vegan!Www@FoodAQ@Com
