awed-frog:OH NO MY CHILD HAS EMPATHY LET’S PUNISH HIM WITH SOME SHITTY COOKING THAT WILL TEACH HIMHonestly why the fuck is eating (farm) animals still so common that people think it’s ok to mock a kid for having compassion for them. Kids deserve to know when they’re being given a someone, not a something, to eat. They deserve to know the bodies their parents thoughtlessly put on their plates belonged to an individual who was just as emotional and sometimes smarter than their beloved dogs and cats. And they deserve to have feelings about being mislead to think all “food” is the same without being laughed at. If a kid is violent towards an animal, it’s usually taken as a sign the kid needs help and may be a danger to other people later. Yet parents continue to normalize violence towards animals in food, fashion, entertainment… It makes no sense. And not that vegans just eat vegetables, but if your kid has such an aversion to vegetables you should deal with that anyways and learn to cook something other than chicken fingers (also vegan meat exists lol). -- source link
