I wrote "Your Vegan Kid" because I remember raising my first child meat- and milk-free in the early 1990s. Since I was new to both - motherhood and plant based lifestyle and information was scarce, it was a big challenge. Nowadays I'm a mother of 3 beautiful, healthy and happy vegan kids aged: 26, 12 and 12 (yes, vegan twins). And I want to share my knowledge and experience with other parents, especially those who are new to the vegan lifestyle. In my book I discuss reasons to raise your child vegan - not only health-related ones, but also psychological and ethical ones. I advise on how to do it at each phase of your kid's life - from being pregnant to raising a teenager. And also how to transition your child to veganism at each of these stages. I also cover most common issues, like: social prejudice, non-vegan co-parent, poor eater, eating on a budget, traveling, etc. I hope my book helps you raise your kids happy, healthy and vegan: ).
