Teacher trying to pursuade child to go less vegetarian

[Guest guest]

Hello to all, I hope you don't mind if I vent a bit.

After educating my children about the reasons that I

am vegetarian, my children have also chosen this

lifestyle. A very neive but concerned teacher had

tried to argue that it is unhealthy for a child to be

a vegetarinan. I had very poiltely but firmly

explained our reasons for our lifestyle, and about the

health benefits involved and thought that would be the

end of it. The middle school science teacher

continues her attempt persuade my 11 year old son to

deviate from this lifestyle that HE has chosen for

many different very credible reasons. I am furious!

My son who is a very sweet child does not want to get

this teacher into trouble, so asked me not to talk to

the Principal. I have decided to honor his request,

but will bring as much information to this teacher as

possible in an attempt to educate her. I will also

tell her that she crossed a line that she had no

business crossing, and that what she is doing in very

un-ethical and will not be tolerated. As politely and

as firmly as possible I will tell her to mind her own

business. If any of you would like to e-mail me with

some information that you think would help educate

this well meaning but clearly wrong (in every sense)

teacher please do. My e-mail address is

wonderwendy32. I would sure love to bring

her e-mail from a doctor if any of you are doctors.

Thank you for letting me vent, and also in advance for

any info you might send.

God Bless you, Wendy

The Physicians Commitee for Responsible Medicine has a

lot of useful articles on the benfits of

vegetarianism. I even used it to educate our

pediatrician who was doubtful that my 18 month old son

could get enough iron and protein on a vegetarian

diet. Good luck and I hope the teacher will learn to

be more tolerant of an individual's choice.
