Wow. Great headline/article Salon! Of course the failure to address ANY instance infant malnutrition in your child is abuse. None of the infant vegan diet mortality examples offered demonstrated an even cursory attempt by the parents involved to educate themselves on plant based diets for children. This is like finding a case where an infant died from only being fed Oreos and attributing that veganism because Oreos happen not to have animal products in them. Vegan diets can be summarized as including no animal products but there is an implicit ethical assumption that you and any of the dependents you feed will engage with the diet in such a way as not to die of malnutrition. Failure to grasp that has nothing to do with veganism and everything to do with ignorance. It is another manifestation very same willful ignorance of what you are putting into your body and those of your children that veganism is meant to ethically protest. salon/2014/06/26/is_veganism_child_abuse/
