Raising vegan children takes diligence. You can't get the proper nutrition with these diets without being an expert in nutrition. Vegetarianism is a nice compromise, however growth spurts can only be fueled by lots of protein. It will take a lot of work to feed them the amount necessary.
What are her reasons for going vegan? Most vegans are not healthy unless they supplement. And most of the protein often comes from soy. Soy is so horrible. Over-processed mono-cultures are not good for the planet. Do another compromise and agree to eat only locally produced food.
I was vegetarian for years but now the only meat I eat has to be grown by a local farm and not fed hormones, antibiotics, and is given the opportunity to walk around on a regular basis. So I don't eat meat depending on who is trying to feed me :)
Is it normal for a father to have no say in his kids diet?
