I believe if you choose to eat meat, then you should kill it yourself. And if you kill something, then you had better eat it.
However, I tend to agree with the slaughterhouse comments. This is where 98% of your meat comes from (and dairy, which is no better).
I think it is great to show kids where their food comes from, so that they can make sound choices. I wish I would have had that when I was a kid. But they need to see the REAL deal. They should see the estimated 5-10% of beef cows for which the “stun gun” is ineffective; who go through the hide ripper alive; whose eyes are looking around, and they moan, as they are slowly and torturously killed. Or the chickens that are hung upside-down on an assembly belt, waiting to get decapitated. How about the baby pigs that don’t grow fast enough, who are slammed into concrete walls out of the farmers’ frustration? And the leghorn hens, stuffed into battery cages with their beaks cut off, laying eggs for you? Disgusting.
Yeah if I was a kid and I saw that, I would have gone vegan at that very moment. So PLEASE don’t candy-coat it. Let the kids SEE the ENTIRE slaughter process, and the TRUE nature of factory farming. There is no humane way to slaughter an animal. “Family farms” is not synonymous with “kindness.”
Lastly, what about options?! Why not introduce children to HEALTHY plant-based food choices? It is no wonder there are so many morbidly obese kids. As a nation, we are encouraging them to eat animals and animal products, then we wonder why there are so many young people with insulin resistance, fatty livers, hypertension, heart disease, etc.
By encouraging children to kill animals, you are promoting cruelty AND you are making the kids unhealthy. Way to go, 4H and Wagner Farm.
