    Hi hippie family. I was just wanting to ask for some help. I have always been aware of my surroundings and cared for the environment, but my family just doesn't care. I don't know how to convince them that the earth is a precious life form. I hate eating their greasy/fried foods, and I just need encouragement. I'm 17 years old (18 in December.) I live with my grandmother who just doesn't understand that veggies are AMAZING. HELP!!!!

    Peace and love,
    Allie

    Welcome to the forum Allison!

    Setting a good example is a good way to start.

    Don't get frustrated if they don't see things your way.

    Hello and welcome Allison!

    You may want to post in the vegetarian and other forums about this.

    Maybe your grandma wouldn't mind having a few vegetarian meals if you prepared them?

    Could you prepare some of your own vegie-based meals?
