Well, that depends on a # of things. #1: your age & current health. #2: if you are living at home or not. I am a mom of a 19 yr old & while she is 19, she lives at home & we pay for the groceries, so there are other considerations such as the cost of the food, meal preparations, etc. If you are too young to make this decision & are still living at home, I'd say, ask your mom to see if you & she can at least get some info from your doctor about what it would mean to become a vegetarian/vegan in terms of your health re: your current age & health. Then if she agrees you can discuss the info & maybe reach an agreement. Going behind her back will not be good for your relationship & if you don't get help you might get sick & no one will know why or how to help you. Good luck!

Go vegetarian! It's your life. And if your parents are coming round for a meal, cook them something vegetarian - there are plenty of good recipe books and they may be pleasantly surprised. Just don't forget to make sure that you're still getting all your necessary vitamins and minerals, and if you can show evidence of this to your parents, maybe you could even convert them! Best of luck. xx

since you are old enough to live on your own you are old enough to make your own decisions. It is not like you are joining a gang or doing drugs or anything that could hurt you so your mom (no offense) has absolutely NO say in it! Do what you want and tell your mom to be thankful you aren't doing anything worse.

If you do it you have to make sure you make up for not eating meat. To you want to be a vegan or vegetarian. You have to make sure you get your proteins and vitamins. If you don't eat cheese your going to have to find a way to get B12. Its is necessary for your body.

i agree...if you are old enough to live on your own....do what you want in regards to eating...... your parents will be able to deal with it...even if they dissaprove... mine are like...God made the animals to be eaten... and i'm like...well i don't believe that..... and we drop it......
of course they might have a fit when i finally make it to raw veganism in about a month...... as soon as my husband's eye gets better and we can get a juicer and what not.....
