Advice please on food

[J199494]

For a week now my son won't eat properly only thing he has agreed to eat is bacon I knew this day would come but not this soon so he's trying it I've said no dairy or eggs or fish as he really is allergic to that I'm honestly just so upset in a way 😢 he's 10 now but i have said I'm not cooking it in my airfryer only in the oven on a tin I will buy specially for it he's so happy eating it but inside I'm not but I can understand its about him 😭😭😭 he been raised vegan BTW

So you want your child to vegan? Or?

Could you agree a compromise where he eats meat outside the home?
Obviously school meals could be potentially lower quality meat as with lower welfare standards and he would need to understand his allergies.
Has he been stonewalling you with a hunger strike?
It must be hard for you.

So you've raised your son vegan and now, aged 10, he is insisting on eating bacon and you're going to separate you cooking utensils into vegan and non-vegan. And although you're upset about his decision you respect it. Sounds good to me, although I'm sorry it leaves you feeling uncomfortable and upset,

I would offer a selection of meat, bread, fruit and vegetables.

Of course he can't live on bacon, but there are still plenty of foods to choose from (even if dairy, fish and eggs are not possible).

Is he actually allergic to dairy and eggs or is it that you don't want to give them to him?

I think the lad needs to learn how to cook, going forward.

Yes you're handling it well OP

If he has been brought up vegan, how do you know that he has an allergy to them?

When we became a vegetarian household we told the DC they could eat meat and fish when they were at friends or in a restaurant. We took DGD on holiday and she is a carnivore. She asked and we told her in advance that in the cottage we would be vegetarian but she could order what she liked when we were out and about. What’s the problem?

He just has to be allowed to eat what he can if he's got selective eating issues.
Ideally you could raise your kids vegan or vegetarian if that's you're own diet, but not if it means they physically won't eat anything!

Have his allergies been diagnosed by doctors, OP?

That's a lot of allergies, OP.
Have they all been diagnosed, and if so, by whom and using what methods?

How long have you been vegan?
