Does your family treat you different because you're a vegetarian?

You know what? I think it's horrible that your family can't accept your diet choice. I'm not a complete vegetarian yet, but I'm heading in that direction. I think it's a really healthy lifestyle in addition to being more environmentally responsible if it's done right. My family is a meat-and-potatoes type of family too, and they think I'm nuts- but during the two weeks when I decided to be all-vegetarian to see how I liked it, they were respectful and didn't try to make me eat any meat. True, they teased me a lot, but they didn't go any further than that. I think for you, persistance will probably pay off. Eventually, they've got to realize that you're just not going to eat meat- and you have plenty of good reasons not to. If it comes down to it, you might have to tell them that unless they can respect your choices, you're simply not coming over for dinner anymore. Good luck, and happy veggie-eating.

In some of my opinion what yur familiy do is good for your health,you should treat it rightfully and understand that people who care you.

your family only considered about your health many researchs showing that vegetarians suffers from lack of vitamin B12 wich important to your blood flow i think :X
