Without Meat Children Are Damaged, Say Scientists

Rubbish, reply vegetarians - led by Paul McCartney. Some say meat is murder, while others dismiss a meal without animal products as rabbit food. Now a leading US nutritionist has given both sides something to chew on with a claim that parents who refuse to feed children meat are acting unethically.

Slainna lol Tell this to all the vegetarians in countries where vegetarianism is commonplace. Some cultures have been doing it for thousands of years. To claim vegetarian children are 'damaged' by default is ridiculous. It's amazing how many people doubt vegetarianism when there have been so many intelligent, talented people who are vegetarian.

Also, of course not watching your child's diet to make sure they get what they need is harmful...whether they eat meat or not! Leave the vegetarians alone and go after the people who spend all their money on instant food with no nutritional value; I'm sure vegetarian children are healthier than them (and the instant-food kids make up a much larger portion of children in the US than veg kids).		 9/18/2008
Dave Geez....... those essential 'brain' proteins from meat are not really doing you any justice Carolyn.

Albert Einstien was a vegetarian and so was Leornardo Di Vinci- Go and prove them wrong!

Donna This study hold no value whatsoever. To look at starving malnutritioned children in Kenya compared to the modern western vegan diet is nothing short of ridiculous. One serve of Soy milk contains 50% RDI of B12. Are you going to tell me vegans don't drink soy? this is absolute rubbish! I've been vegan for 26 years and It was the best dietary choice I have ever made. I don't take supplements and I love telling doctors after an impressive check-up that Im vegan. The people who assume veganism is unhealthy and 'to hard' are always the ones who have never tried it. 8/8/2007
