I still remember sitting at the dinner table when I was about 8, not wanting to eat a hot dog and my mother made me sit there until I did...well it got later and later into the evening and I sat there and cried and cried and did not eat it...she finally let me go to bed. She never tried to make me eat it again...it took a few years before I became a vegetarian. I had never heard the word or met anyone who was...at 16 I stopped eating meat.
I am now 53. I raised my two kids as vegetarians, my son went to college at 16 and my daughter is a good student also I remember once when my son was about 3...he walked by a butcher department and yelled at the butcher you are killing animals. My mother became very supportive of my choice.

PS. If every one of us inspired ONE person to go meatless imagine the difference we could make in ten years time. I am going to collect inspirational vegetarian/vegan stories to share with everyone. If you think your story will inspire others, please share with me by sending it to info@veglov.com. I will post your stories on this www.veglov.com blog. I believe everyone has his/her own story, I think it must be great when we can share our stories and inspire others. Let’s make the world a better place. ~ Xiao Kang.
