Oh good. I suppose I was traumatised after Australia's Funniest Home Videos thought it would be hilarious to have a whole reel of babies throwing up in their parents' mouths.
An omnivore is only compromising by eating a vegetarian meal if they are one of those people who feel that every meal has to contain meat. I'm not a vegetarian, but about half the meals I cook are meat-free, not because I have any aversion to meat but because I really like vegetables, and whether the meal has meat or not isn't terribly important to me. I make spinach and fetta pie, roast pumpkin soup, pesto risotto, spinach and ricotta cannelloni, tofu stir fries, various Mexican dishes with beans, pizzas, and salads that both omnivores and vegos seem to enjoy without anyone ever asking "where's the meat?"
By the way, a vego could have eaten the egg. This looks like a vegan alternative, or a vego who personally chooses not to eat egg.
The 2 highest predictors of the volume of food we eat at a single meal are the selection of food on offer - the more selections, the more we eat, and the number of people we eat with - the more people we eat with, the more we eat.
They knew this would create controversy. This discussion right here - it's what they want. What's the worst that could happen? I don't see too many people boycotting milk just because of this.
It's a complex issue. There is a whole lot more to environmental influences than parental influence, particularly as the child gets a little older.
Once children reach a certain age, parents cannot take all of the blame. Kids are bombarded with so much advertising for junk food. If they want to eat it, they'll find a way even if their parents try to educate them and provide a healthy diet. They'll use their pocket money to buy junk food dirt cheap and lie about it, or they'll get it from their friends.
Mot students leave school scientifically illiterate, so it's always great to see teachers that are passionate about teaching, particularly science. Very well done :)
@Ryan S, the prevalence and efficacy of parenting style differs across race at least within America. Research has generally shown that authoritarian parenting is both more common and provides more positive outcomes in African American families than it does in causasian American families.
Also, cameras are only able to capture visible light, so it doesn't make sense that we would only be able to see obvious ghostly images upon developing the film (most of these are from film cameras).

Actually that does look like a pygmy hippo though. One was born at Taronga zoo, Syndey last year and it looked just like that:
