I'm not a vegetarian. Though I've read books and seen documentaries that has helped me gain more of an understandining of the 'slaughter world.' What really opened my eyes was the TV show by Jamie Oliver (Jamie's Fowl Dinner's). Nothing could have made me go off meat more than that.
I was wondering whether it's right to feed a child meat from a young age. It came to my mind earlier this evening when I was watching my 4 year-old cousin being fed spoonfuls of lamb by my uncle.
I just wonder if it's best to let the child decide and have an insight from a young age about the whole meat production business. I mean, it's sort of the same thing with religion, isn't it? Some parents let their children decide whether or not God is real (not my parents though, I was born Catholic).
I know that if most kids were given this choice, they would decide to eat meat like most of the world... but there would still be a small percentage who would not.
Opinions please?
Thanks!
