Thanks for posting this. We are heading back East for a week with my in laws and they are a big fishing family. I too struggle with how do we emphasize compassion and our ethics without painting grandparents in a bad light.
One thing I am trying to do is encourage my 3 years old to ask them why they eat meat or fish or drink cows milk. He asks me and I can give the well, it's hard for people to change or they might not know but I kinda feel like I am speaking for them and what I am saying isn't the truth. Does this make sense? So I want him to be able to ask them up front and have them tell him the truth. |
