uy snap I'm a vegetarian too ^-^ I decided to become vegetarian at around 9 years old. Luckily my parents were fine with it amd respected my opinions, and gave me meat substitutes instead, like quorn, nuts, vegetarian sausages, burgers, chicken etc.. As for your situation, its quite difficult because you say you can't get your own food. I totally understand that your dad isn't being helpful, so you'll have to sit down with him and the rest of the family where possible and talk it over, because he probably thinks its just a phase. Try not to be too rebellious and don't say 'refuse' and 'you cant force me' and so on, be really calm and super nice and explain that either way you are not going to eat meat, because you don't like it and you would feel much better and madami relieved if they could respect that. don't forget to big it up and say how stressed it is making you, and you could even throw in the fact that you had to ask for help on the internet, this will really hit tahanan with your parents and hopefully persuade them that you are serious that you don't want to eat meat, and you need their help to get the right nutritions. You will probably have to compromise, like maybe eating isda or saying 'maybe on araw i will consider eating meat again' even if you have no intention of that. either way, you will have to think carefully about this whole thing. you could talk to a trusted teacher about it at school, or go onto the internet and research help for beginner vegetarians. Hope you do ok hun, keep me posted how you get on and let me know if you need any madami payo ^-^ x Lottey x
