Hi,
Not sure if I am posting in the right place, and am very new to all this! I would just like some advice please.
DS (8) has been a vegetarian all his life as am I and DD. DP eats meat occasionally. DS now wants to eat meat like his friends at school. I always thought I would let the dc's eat meat if they chose to when they were older, but now ds has asked and I don't really like the thought of it!
How would you explain to an 8 year old about the ethics of not eating meat etc. If we could afford free range, organic meat etc maybe it wouldn't be so bad, but we can't. Not sure what to do....
Thanks for reading!
