My Daughter is a Vegetarian: Parental Grief on the Occasion of Coming Out
My Daughter is a Vegetarian: Parental Grief on the Occasion of Coming Out
Parents of Vegetarians is an organization that stages family intervention retreats for vegetarians whose parents just don’t get it. The parents go through process groups to understand the relationship (or lack thereof) of their parenting to their children’s choices. Often, the parents of vegetarians go through the stages of grief as they come to terms with their children’s lifestyles, whether those children were born with a disposition to/ intolerance for meat or whether they chose to live as vegetarians. This is one mother’s journal.
