Guest guest Posted October 26, 2005 Report Share Posted October 26, 2005 This week 2 pieces of paper have came home from school with my daughter upsetting me. The first was a list of stuff for a halloween party - some were okay pretzels and nuts but some of them not okay - marshmallows, gummy worms, candy corn. I marked the items she isn't allowed to have. But more and more I'm feeling iffy about letting her have any school provided snacks. She doesn't know everything that is off limits especially with something like gummy worms that may or may not have gelatin. The other is a Harvest Festival that they are having next month where they will be learning about Thanksgiving, harvesting fall crops, some of it will probably be good for her to learn. Some of it I want to sheild her from - like the fact that while we are adopting a turkey from Farm Sanctuary the other kids in her class will be sacrificing a turkey in the name of tradition. Also the school is providing a bagged lunch (probably turkey sandwiches since it is thanksgiving themed though it didn't say and since schools are funded by the USDA they will probably have cow milk to drink) and requested for parents not to send lunchboxes or book bags on this day. I've seen the school menu and they offer an acceptable (by my standards) vegan meal (meal not including drink) about once a month I'm not sending my child off to school without food or drink. I hate causing scenes about stuff.. I just don't know how to handle it. Renee Mail - PC Magazine Editors' Choice 2005 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 27, 2005 Report Share Posted October 27, 2005 You don't need to cause a scene as far as providing the lunch. You can just send an alternate lunch for her. You could also send an alternate snack, possibly enough for the whole class. I do this a lot. If you are really uncomfortable about the turkey talk then I would keep her home that day.

Guest guest Posted October 27, 2005 Report Share Posted October 27, 2005 The teachers may even expect you to be sending lunch, they just don't want to deal with all the confusion if all the kids have them. You might want to write a letter as a reminder ahead of time. Maybe that will be easier than a face to face confrontation? Plus, you have something solid to stand on that you told them. Remember that teachers sometimes are overwhelmed at big events like that, and could forget things you think would be obvious. I'm sure it'll be fine that you send something in with your daughter, but if you chose not to, be sure your daughter knows what not to eat. It is very tough, and you don't want her to feel that she can't participate with the class. But she may feel more confused if she has a choice of something that she might not recognize like turkey. I had a very similar situation last year, and it didn't go well. The school didn't tell us they were serving turkey, and I didn't think to ask specifically, since it was just a 2 1/2 hr program. They knew he was veg, he even told his teacher he didn't eat turkey, and when I picked him up shortly after, he was so confused he didn't know whether he had eaten turkey or not. Since there were a few things he didn't recognize like maybe cranberry sauce and something else, it was an aweful experience. Hopefully you will have a much better experience, but I wanted to mention the story, because even if our kids arm theit can still be difficult. It's so distressing as a parent with some different views. After all, we're sending our kids in to school, say make friends, share, and on and on. If we are difficult, then does our child suffer the consequences? There's so many lines to walk that we walk so carefully. Be strong. And remember to support your children in an environment when they may feel a little isolated at times.

Guest guest Posted October 27, 2005 Report Share Posted October 27, 2005 I understand what you are saying Renee. I would insist that the school allowed me to send my child a lunch and a drink. Make Tofurky sandwiches. We also adopt a turkey every year from the Farm Sanctuary and I allow each child to bring the picture and everything that comes with it. I found that it will give my children a chance to explain that they are vegetarian. They also explain how gross it is to eat actual turkey. My kids tend not to hold back even though I tell them to tone it down a bit. Maybe the teacher will allow you to come in to do a demonstration of a vegan Thanksgiving. You could bring vegan food and the pic of your turkey. Maybe discuss vegetarianism. What grade are we talking about.

Guest guest Posted October 28, 2005 Report Share Posted October 28, 2005 I know how you feel Renee. Please be assured that you are teaching your child well and she is going to take these values with her through her journey of life. I do not like causing scenes either. It is more important that you do not compromise your values. If you did, she possibly would think that one is a vegan only when it is comfortable. I do not think that is what you are aiming for. Does she cook too? Our family has recently transitioned from omni to vegetarian, and i find that my girls are full of pride when they make their own vegetarian meal. I help them, i want them to learn how to take care of themselves. It is hard being different, I know, but I think it would be far less satisfying to be a sheep and follow the crowd. Other children may learn from your child and become humanitarian vegans themselves. Kids learn from kids. I think that you are doing a great job, even if you are not always the most popular mother at times, at least you are not spoon-fed your values. I have to bring my daughter special food to daycare myself. I try real hard to make her food as close as possible to what other kids have so she does not feel like a weirdo. So far, so good. Take care, Shell Renee Carroll <renecarol25 wrote: This week 2 pieces of paper have came home from school with my daughter upsetting me.

Guest guest Posted October 29, 2005 Report Share Posted October 29, 2005 You will just have to speak to the teacher and principal about your standards. If you are able, these specific days would each be a great opportunity to volunteer in the classroom, at least during the meal and celebration. That way you can smoothly monitor what is offered and what your child eats without making it too complicated for her. You could bring enough of some sort of vegan treat for the whole class to try. I used to love the days when my mom was " the room mother! " If you ask, I'm sure you'll find that the school has options other than dairy and turkey. The teacher probably cares for your daughter, so she'll surely be supportive. Explain to the teacher that your child could become ill if she consumes animal protiens, since she has never had it. So many kids are allergic to milk, while other cannot have sugar (A.d.d., Adhd, etc.) The candy is an issue, but you may send vegan treats, again, enough for all, and explain to your daughter which ones are acceptable. I love that you are adopting a turkey from a sanctuary. What a wonderful thing for your child to be able to share with the class! Maybe she could do a report for extra credit, or if you are there that day, maybe you could explain to the class in a very gentle way what you are doing for the turkey! If anyone can appreciate acts of kindness towards animals, CHILDREN CAN. Please tell me... what do you mean by " sacrificing a turkey? " Are you sure turkey is even involved at all? Many schools don't really touch on the turkey eating and killing issue since it might upset even the meat eating children. Lots of kids don't know what their food really is, and some kids are vegetarian for religious or cultural reasons. Anyway, I think this all sounds like you can easily turn it around to be very positive and beneficial to your child and the class.

Guest guest Posted October 29, 2005 Report Share Posted October 29, 2005 Regarding ADD/ADHD and candy - it is usually the dyes in candy that are the problem for ADD/ADHD kids rather than the sugar. Preservatives are also a problem. I've done a lot of research on this because I have ADHD and so does my youngest son. My middle son is very laid back and easy going and would never be called hyper unless he has red dye. Then he gets really hyper, can't sleep and gets very clumsy. It is so easy to see the effect on him because he is normally so quiet.

Guest guest Posted October 31, 2005 Report Share Posted October 31, 2005 You can adopt an animal year round. I'm doing this thru my employer where they take money out (pretax) and it goes to the charity of my choice. I did an online thing at www.farmsanctuary.org and instead of putting in the creditcard info noted that I was donating thru work. You can also go to www.adoptaturkey.org and you can adopt a turkey for thanksgiving (this is just a one month sponsorship). They will send you a little packet in the mail with info and a picture of your turkey/or other animal.

Guest guest Posted October 31, 2005 Report Share Posted October 31, 2005 It is so much fun for the kids. Go to farmsanctuary.org and I'm sure they have something on thier site about turkey adoption. Basically, you send $15 per turkey and they send you a picture of your turkey with it's " story " . My kids love it. They take turns taking the pic to school and showing it off to everyone. This past summer we went to visit our turkey but she was adoptedout to another farm where they will let her live out her life in peace. We were disappointed that we couldn't meet her but so happy that she had people who loved her.
