The parents of a 12-year-old girl in Scotland brought up by her parents on a strict vegan diet might face police after she landed in the hospital with a degenerative bone condition that apparently left her with the spine of an 80-year-old woman.
Doctors are under pressure to report the couple to police and social workers amid concerns that her health and welfare may have been neglected in pursuit of their dietary beliefs.
So sad. When will people realize what may work in a diet for adults does not necessarily work for a growing child and is frequently very harmful to said child?
