And for
vegans under the same circumstances, i. e. if the kids are raised vegan from birth, teaching them to be vegan at home, but that it were okay to have whatever animal products they wish to consume outside of the home, would seem similar as teaching them its wrong to steal from mummys purse, but fine to rob a person downtown if they feel like it.
The majority of people dont really question omnivores forcing their diets/beliefs" on their children but simply accept it as a given, incl. many veg*ns. But when it comes to veg*ns raising their kids veg*n, suddenly it is supposed to be a completely different issue to bring up ones children according to ones values...
