Hi Milena, I’m so glad your grandchildren have a wise woman in their lives. We all need more access to inter-generational wisdom. Search your memories for stories to tell them, little, simple stories that don’t feel like arguments or lectures, and that accumulate to offer balance to the story they hear at school (it’s all just story). You can’t know how or when your stories will land, but land they will, now or decades from now. Stories from a wise grandmother are riches in an impoverished world.

So long as they don’t become rigidly stuck in one view point, they’ll be okay. They may explore vegetarian or veganism; it’s ok to go all the way to one end of a spectrum in the process of finding out where on that spectrum you belong, and why. Don’t lock them out of exploring the other end of the spectrum by generating resistance. Sorry for the lecture!! that all just kind of bubbled up…

I appreciate your support Donna, thank you.

Thanks Helen. Its a difficult, complex topic and there are lots of angles to approach it from. It would probably take a book to approach them all. I’m glad you enjoyed it.

Thanks for commenting, Refugio. I wonder sometimes, when I press publish, how a post is going to be received. I appreciate the support.
