Are vegan kids doomed to social isolation? With animal products served at school, parties and get-togethers, what’s a vegan kid to do to fit in? And how do parents help their children navigate social events without relegating them to the role of outsiders?
Being around family during the holidays can be challenging, regardless of your dietary inclination. For vegans with non-vegan family and friends, these social events can be made all the more challenging.
Navigating social situations as a vegan, especially a new vegan, can be intimidating and anxiety-provoking. You may wonder what to say or how to act and what people will think of you. And if you’re a non-vegan you may wonder how to react around vegan guests.
Are you the only vegan (or non-vegan) in your family? Are you in a relationship with someone of differing dietary inclinations? How do you navigate this challenging and complex landscape?
