Name changed for this.
This isn't another 'my kid wants to be vegan/vegetarian how do I stop them' threads. I absolutely believe that under normal circumstances a teenager is perfectly capable of making their or dietary choices when suitable.
However my dd15 was discharged from an eating disorder clinic four months ago after suffering from bulimia/anorexia. She has now stated she wants to be vegan. I'm all for encouraging more sustainable lifestyles, however I am worried that such a restrictive diet is not healthy mentally for someone with previous food struggles. At the same time I want her to feel in control of her diet.
Please help.
