veggie kids

anybody got any? how does it work? what do you do if your partner is a meat-eater?

I'm veggie and my husband is a meat eater.   Ethan (our son, 16 months) is eating meat.   He is a very fussy eater so it's hard to get him to eat anything, animal or otherwise.  I try and give him a meat meal for his dinner before he goes to bed.  Lunchtime is usually something simple and vegetarian like cheese on toast or some kind of vege pasta. It does mean some extra cooking sometimes but Ethan loves his Hipp Organic Pasta & Pork out of a jar too so that helps! 

It's a hard call.  I'm a carnivore, he's a veggie.  We both feel that our eating habbits are the best because (fill in the blank).

For us, we are looking at older-child adoption.  So, it is likely that the child will already be one or the other.  In which case, we would continue those eating patterns until a child was ready to make the call on their own.

But a baby you bring up from day one?  I suppose that depends on what the parents are most comfortable with.  Also, on whether the parents are commited to ensuring that a growing baby gets all the nutirents they need.

If you feel very strongly that you want a veggie kid, talk it out with the hubby and a pediatrician and go from there.
