Recent discussion topics include:
– How do you help your child (if necessary) when they are teething? One suggestion we have is to slice a bagel in half, freeze it, and give it to older children when teething.
– Do any of you send your kids to summer camp? If so, how do you manage the camp food and vegan options? Parents responses included: Do you know about YEA Camp – Youth Empowered Action Camp? All Vegan – for teens. It changed my daughter’s life! The Camp Kindness program at Catskill Animal Sanctuary is 100% vegan!
– A vegan diet can still be high in sugar. Any thoughts about this?

https://www.facebook.com/groups/VRGparentsandkids/ is intended to be a group that offers support for
families raising children on vegan diets and for vegan kids. We envision it as
a place to get advice about a wide-variety of topics: pregnancy, birthday
parties, school lunches, Halloween, non-leather apparel, cruelty-free products,
summer camps, and more. Please use it as a place to share your wisdom, seek
advice, or just find a sympathetic ear. The goal is to offer support.
Consequently, any profane, defamatory, offensive,
or violent language will be removed. Feel free to disagree, but do so
respectfully. Hateful or discriminatory comments regarding race, ethnicity,
religion, gender, disability, sexual orientation, or political beliefs will not
be tolerated. We expect that posts should relate to vegan diets and lifestyles.
The Vegetarian Resource Group reserves the right to monitor all content and ban
any user who posts in violation of the above rules, any law or regulation,
SPAM, or anything otherwise off topic.
Please share this information with any veggie families that you know! Thanks.
