You mean "video gamers neglect thier baby". Absolutely no connection to meat eating there. While the vegan case a while definitely was connected thier dietery regime.

no it wasn't. As was CLEARLY explained in the article (and as the lawyer was quoted), it wasn't a diet issue. They weren't giving the baby enough food. Period.

Thanks. If Satori still isn't convinced, there are a ton of links in the other thread.

They may have under fed it, but they were also giving it the wrong food which was harmful. If they had simply underfed it but the food that it did get was nutritious it might be alive today. Thier absurd dietary beliefs contributed to it`s death.

Wrong, wrong, wrong. Do a search and look up the facts.

Key phrase "under fed".
Key idea: They didn't feed it enough food.
Not key idea: Type of food.

a better angle/point to make is the number of obese children eating meat. Not just babies, but children of all ages.

An even better angle/point to make is the number of obese children that eat boatloads of sugar. Not just children eating meat.

But it's still mostly meat-eating parents feeding their kids boatloads of sugar, refined flour, white rice, fried s*it, etc. Isn't it?

Is it? Or is that what you vegan friends have brainwashed you to believe? My vegetarian friends (not militant vegans like you) eat white rice, sugar, and refined flour. I guess they're just not as morally superior as you. Rolling Eyes

I think the point of the OP was to point out how irrelevant the 'vegan parents' headline was in another instance.
