Another vegan AP mom here. It's definitely true for us that the issues go hand in hand (realizations about cow's milk, curiousity about animal ingredients in vaccines, etc.). I most definitely question things even more than before and am doing a lot more research. Sometimes I wish for a second I could forget what I've learned as it seems to make our lives more difficult (eg: potential problems with wireless) but I don't really mean it. As for the isolation, I often wish we could live in a place where our views were more pervasive (both veg and AP). I think it all comes down to compassion and empathy for other beings. Unfortunately, it seems an egocentric viewpoint is much more common around here and I get tired of seeing livestock transport trucks. :( Excellent post! Another vegan AP mom here.

I am not a mom (yet, though I hope to be) but I am a vegan, and find myself currently, as I am about to get married, already facing a slurry of comments about even the possibility of veg*n parenting. I appreciate your thoughts and words and the concept of AP parenting is totally new to me , at least as a noun, but fits in with my entire scope of world/human understandings. So thank you so much!

I am vegan and my husband is not. He did not want our daughter raised vegan and it has been a struggle. Once Eliza is old enough to understand I will talk to her about not eating meat. I really need to learn more about AP! Great post! I am vegan and my husband is not. He did not want our daughter raised vegan and it has been a struggle.

It can be hard sometimes, many people can view your practicing veganism or AP as a judgement on their choices, especially when it comes to anything to do with raising children, a very emotive topic all round! oops hit enter too soon, also meant to say I completely agree with you about the isolation aspect.
