I think sometimes Veganism smacks of a bit of "Look at me" and hints at some deep self worth issues, Sometimes it seems that people want to not exist through making as little impact on the planet and other beings, becasue us humans are so destructive and not worthy of existing on this planet, they put Cows and Sheep above people, sorry, we exist, we a re succesful predator, get over it, we arent going to go away and we can live frugally, eat meat and not be so destructive, we evolved so stop apologizing for our existence, same goes for the green movement, we cant all live in dung huts and weave baskets to sell to tourists.

As for making the kids ill, ffs, get a grip, kids need carbs, fat, fibre, iron, calcium and vitamins and god knows what, they thrive on crap compared to carrot sticks and rasins, a balance needs to be struck, I personally want to strike parents who stop teir kids having chocolate and produce a bag of Raisins and say "Tarquin doesnt eat chocolate, he loves his Alfalfa sprouts", the evil b4stards, it doesnt work, they get old enough and rebel, a relative of our went all organic and fed their little lad like that, he was under sized and educationally sub normal by some way, he hs since done well at uni but it was no thanks to his daft mum
