Do vegans breastfeed?
Their own children? What about 'wet nursing'? Is that allowed?

Do vegans breastfeed? Ethics??????
Very interesting question. I had one fellow, some time ago, try to
justify abortions by suggesting that the child takes nutrients from the mother at her expense, therefore he felt the child to be a parasite to its mother. Now we have a child that is consuming nothing but an animal-sourced food (mother's milk). Animal proteins, animal fats and animal-sourced carbs in the form of mothers milk. The mother has a choice to feed her child this "mucus", as I've heard people in this ng refer to milk or tp feed it plant based foods. As a vegan child, must the mother not with-hold her milk and feed it plant sourced foods only? And what are the ethics of that? TC ThePsyko wrote: > Their own children? What about 'wet nursing'?

That's an interesting arguement. I suppose by definition, they ARE "parasites", but not all parasite/host relationships are bad either - some do quite well together. I suppose it can also be argued that children continue to suck the life out of you until they're old enough to move out? > > Now we have a child that is consuming nothing but an animal-sourced > food (mother's milk).

No. Sadly they are able to reproduce and impose their abusive and neglectful diet strategies onto unsuspecting infants. More than a few of their children have died in their care. And those who do not die live miserably sickly malnourished lives.
