A grandmother despairs at her grandson’s vegan lifestyle and wishes he would stop. She says it is hell to take care of his diet.
A grandmother openly admits that she hopes her grandchildren will give up the vegan lifestyle. “It’s hell worrying about nutrition,” she told the Daily Mail.
Grandson Theo is particularly worrying for the grandmother. He has been vegan since he was born seven years ago and is also a real mini-activist. When she goes to the supermarket with him, he loudly refuses to go to the “aisle with the dead animals” when she has to buy meat, complains the grandmother.
Overnight stays are also problematic because she has to check everything. She checks every label on food and toiletries, which is very time-consuming and exhausting. Vegan food is also more expensive.
She could not even speak freely in the presence of her grandchild. She describes a scene in which she asked the adults over coffee who wanted “normal” milk and who wanted oat milk. Theo then became angry. “Why do you say it’s ‘normal’ when it comes from a baby cow?” he complained.
The desperate grandmother even deliberately tried to persuade her grandson to eat meat, she admits in the Daily Mail. But without success.
According to the Professional Association of Pediatricians and Adolescent Doctors (bvkj), almost ten percent of adults in Germany are vegetarian or vegan – and the trend is rising. Many of them also feed their children a vegetarian or vegan diet. But more and more children and young people are also deciding on their own to avoid meat or animal products.
While a vegetarian diet is now considered feasible under certain conditions, especially in adolescence, experts are critical of a vegan diet – especially for the youngest children. A vegan diet means that children miss out on several important building blocks and have to find other ways to absorb the missing nutrients in order to develop healthily, according to the bvkj website.
Lots of sun and rising temperatures are now the order of the day again. If you drive a lot, you’re probably relying heavily on the air conditioning in your car. Not without reason, as it cools significantly more and faster than leaving the windows open while driving. But you should still be careful.
