They believe it is better for their health and the environment, and/or that it is kinder to kill plants than cattle, sheep, chickens, pigs, and other animals; often so-called vegetarians still eat fish, eggs, and dairy products, such as cheese, milk, and yogurt.

They don't realize that plants also want to live, and that dairy products are made by depriving mother cows, ewes, and goats of their babies, who often die, or that eggs come from chickens, who also are never allowed to raise their babies. The belief that eating fish qualifies as vegetarian is not explainable.

Some people do it to save money, although many vegetarian products are quite expensive, too.

People are vegetarain for many different reasons. Some reasons are religious (for example, many people in India regard the cow as sacred and thus do not eat beef, and many do not eat any meat at all). Others feel that is it healthier not to eat meat. There are a lot of people who are just raised to be vegetarian by their families, so they just accept and continue with it. Some people are against animal cruelty or the idea of eating animals, too. There can be many different causes and reasons depending on the individual and their specific circumstances.

Explain your concerns about giving a meatloaf to a child who is vegetarian?

Vegetarian?My first question is: Is the 'child' vegetarian by his/her own choice? Do you mean to give him meatloaf without his knowledge?Does the child really want meatloaf? How old is this child? Are you the child's parent?Usually people become vegetarian for moral and/or health reasons.If someone wants to offer meat to a vegetarian, I'd suggest a healthier choice like organic, grain-fed chicken raised without steroids or other harmful chemicals. The whole point of being vegetarian is to NOT eat meat, so offering him meatloaf (or any animal products) would not be appropriate.If the child's vegetarian, why on earth would you try to give it meatloaf??
