I can only speak for myself: I feel that killing animals is wrong, I don’t have the self control to stop, and seeing people who do (and are living more ethical lives than me) makes me annoyed and resentful. I would, however, be extremely proud if my children decided to become vegan (and would prepare vegan meals for them).
- rhacker 5y agoI'm having trouble parsing your sentence. You're annoyed and resentful of yourself or of the vegans?
- spoonjim 5y agoOf them, for holding a mirror up to my own failings.
- corry 5y agoJim - I'm not vegan, but I wanted to be the voice of the universe telling you that you CAN do it. Start by moving to pescatarian or vegetarian for a month, then maybe a year. Then phase out the other stuff. Bask in the glow of doing something you believe is right, even if it's hard. Be the example for your kids even if it's with baby steps. Cheers.
- standardUser 5y agoOne huge flaw with the way vegetarianism/veganism is often presented it that it's all or nothing. But that's a fallacy. Eat one less meat meal every week if you want. Have vegan Sundays. Cut out only cows.
- sweetheart 5y agoYou can do it. You can absolutely do it.
