Great article. I had a philosophy prof in college tell the class that is it wrong to force eating habits like vegetarianism (not even veganism) on children. Mind you, I did bring up his Catholic faith being a cornerstone of his children's home school education. He obviously thought it was different. Parenting, I continued in class, can be thought of as "forcing" our best beliefs on our children. If parents are vegan, our best beliefs include explaining the deliberate harm of animals in food production, science, etc--and the household's prohibition against it where absolutely possible.
