My 2-year-old daughter follows my vegan diet and snacks on 'no guilt' foods - she didn't even want to eat her birthday cake

A teenage vegan mother has revealed she is raising her baby on a vegan diet and 'no-guilt' foods - and doesn't even let her watch TV.

Chloe-Elizabeth Elliot from Pontefract raises her daughter Elizabeth-Hope on a rigorous diet of oats, yoghurt and homemade pasta, as well as a fresh serving of fruits every day.

So manicured are her baby's taste buds that on her first birthday, the tot ate the fruit around her cake and skipped the carby treat completely.

And the 19-year-old content creator is totally headstrong about her choices, claiming other people's opinions don't bother her.

'I just brush negative comments away. I will just tell people to educate themselves,' she said.

A diet that is high in plant protein is excellent, if it is well rounded. However, enough studies have shown that you need animal fat for proper brain development.

How can you be so bigoted?

The two-year-old obviously first weighed all the evidence, examined all the logical arguments, deliberated at length, and then drew an impartial conclusion.

Regards,

(Chloe-Elizabeth Elliot from Pontefract raises her daughter Elizabeth-Hope)

Two clues in the same sentence...

I believe this.....my DIL raised greatly limited snacks and sugars for her first child who at school parties etc. would look for the veggies and fruit - seldom for sweets. though she wasn't ‘vegan’ just limiting sweets was sufficient.

and doesn't even let her watch TV.

That may be a problem with wokeducators due to hindering moral decay, while calling her child "her" really raises an alarm.

this idiot is harming her own child....

my son and his wife were so intent on organic this and that, and soy milk, and no sugar and very little meat and they didn't really start food food until he was several months old...

he's now 13 and his diet habits are no veggies, no nothing except chicken nuggets, french fries from fast food, plain wheat toast, milk and donuts...granted he's on the autism spectrum but I don't think it helps him to be so limited in his food likes...

Vegan mom gets life in prison for starvation death of 18-month-old son who weighed 17 pounds
Sheila O’Leary’s son, Ezra O’Leary, was the size of a 7-month-old baby when he died in September 2019. She and her husband had two other children who also were malnourished, investigators said.

There are a lot of idiots out there that think they just need to eat plants and their bodies will get all the nutrition it needs. You need to really do your research on this if you want to be a vegetaria n and be heathy.

This mother does not seem to be providing protein sources. Vegan diets for children are risky.
https://www.independent.co.uk/life-style/food-and-drink/vegan-children-benefit-risk-expert-a7961906.html

In recent months, Italy has seen multiple cases of children on vegan diets being hospitalized for malnutrition. In June, a 2-year-old girl was brought to a hospital in Genoa, where she spent several days in intensive care after doctors found her to be suffering from vitamin deficiencies and low levels of hemoglobin. And last June, an 11-month-old baby, whose parents are vegans, was treated for severe malnutrition at a hospital in Florence

Exactly. The child suffers the ill effects when parents prioritize virtue signaling and ignore nutritional needs of a growing child. The child is an accessory not an individual to many of these parent.

I agree, that’s why you have to do your research. I support a diet high on plant protein, but you need a lot of fat for a healthy brain.
