Please, please help me with this. I just went vegan and now my mom says that if i dont eat dairy again that shes not going to eat at all! what do i do please please please help me
She's probably just trying to make you feel bad. I sincerely doubt she'd go on a hunger strike because of your convictions to eat vegan. Tell her why you're vegan, and then tell her to suck it up.
Don't change something because your mom says shes going to starve herself.. Shes going to eat. All shes trying to do is make you feel guilty and make you non-vegan. I would say go for it and continue being a vegan. Shes hurting herself not you.
Its no problem. You should never change yourself or something that you believe in because of someone. Shes going to realize what shes doing is stupid and that she needs to respect you and how you feel and what you believe in. And i think that you should point that out.. Not in a rude mannor or anything, theres nice ways of doing it.
yea im gonna talk to her... hopefully she doesnt take it as me being rude... she seems to do that alot
Well, I'm the sort who would do it, and catch her eating. But, I'm a tad mean. Point out that she's being manipulative and that she's better than that. Then ask what her concerns are about a vegan diet and lifestyle and work together to find the best answers for your situation.
That's crazy your mom would do that... That really sucks. I don't see what the big deal is. If you want to do a healthy change to yourself who is she to be against it? I mean if you JUST WENT vegan she could even give you a chance to give it a try to... Good luck!
