11 year old vegetarian girl comments

[Guest guest]

I got this message from my father, who is already on the list. I

am 11

years old and have been a Vegetarian all of my life. There IS a price to pay

to be vegetarian, but

it is worth it.

 

It hurts my heart to even think about all of the horrible

things that go on in this world, our world. I have tried to help though. I

stopped one of my friends when we were in 2nd grade from eating pepperonies

and she hasn't had one since. My other friend has stopped eating so much red

meat, my cousin loves vegtables more than ever now, and I have even made my

best friend a COMPLEAT vegetarian. She loves all animals as much as me, but

we still eat cheese and dairy products. I mean, who can resist Ice cream?!

I

don't think that eating dairy products makes me any less of a vegetarian. I

love animals, and don't eat them. It's not like I am not doing anything.

Mabey someday, I will become a Vegan, untill then, I have my own belifes,

and

they are only MY belifes.

 

Please, send me any thing you can that I can send

to my friends about animals. You can send it to

Hi Danielle,

It's nice to hear from a veggie kid! My daughter is 4 and I hope she still

shares your views when she is 11. Check out the link for some help with

your friends/classmates.

God Bless,

Lisa

Good question, who can resist ice cream. Particularly mint chocolate chip.

You sound like you have your priorities well in order.

You hang on to your beliefs and don't worry about anything except being true

to yourself, dear.

My 11 year old vegetarian son loves ice cream too.
