Express ran an article expressing
doubt in the safety of vegan and vegetarian diets under the headline ‘Is
it really safe to bring up your child a vegan?’. Chris Olivant,
Head of Information and spokesperson for The Vegetarian Society, was
quoted in the article saying, “it is not irresponsible to raise
a child as a vegetarian or vegan…it is irresponsible to feed a
child badly” and that vegetarian parents are “…less
likely to feed their child junk food than omnivores because they have
given it some thought”.
