Like sure snakes look nice but i would be really fucked up if i had to give it a living or dead rat every half a week or so. Only reason im not vegan is cos of that thin layer of separation between what i eat and the animal it came from, so i dont feel awful everytime i eat, do yall not feel any of that?

    for real tho i dont want to tell my parents so i wont start until im out of the house for good

    The idea of having to "come out" as vegan is very weird to me, but you know your situation way better than i do

      Some people are weirdly aggressive with vegans, some parents are weirdly controlling about their children's lives. I assume these two things sometimes blend together and it can't be a healthy living situation

      Idk, call me all fashioned but if my child said "I'm gonna start cooking vegan meals for myself, I'm willing to pay for fancy replacements. Yes, I know about B12, these are my supplements" I would simply not care

      I get it. My parents absolutely would not have allowed me to be vegan growing up and would have mocked me for years if I ever seriously suggested it. Anything critical of Christianity, guns, or hunting was not tolerated, and my parents saw veganism as an ideology that was opposed to all three. They even specifically forbade my brother and I from watching Bambi and The Iron Giant because of they were critical of hunting for sport.

      But now that I'm independent, I get to be vegan and they get to deal with it.
