Hello,
I Am a Vegan and My Parents Don't Truely Understand Why. I Explain To Them About Animal Welare,Yet They Still Don't Understand. My Mother Belives That Being A Vegan Is UnHealthy. Is It Truely UnHealthy To Be A Vegan.
If your mother is concerned, have her make an appointment to see a nutritionist. They can help you make good nutritional decisions in keeping with a vegan lifestyle that will prevent the health issues that can arise with them. [ NinjaNeer's advice column | Ask NinjaNeer A Question ]

If you wanted to see if you're library had one, I suggest checking it out. If they don't have it, ask if you can inter-library loan it. Once you get it, show your mom that you won't just be eating salads all day. [ easilyfixed's advice column | Ask easilyfixed A Question ]
