While you are correct in saying that humans don't NEED meat, it is far from unhealthy. The problem is, most people go for the fattiest, least-trimmed meat they can find. Chicken and fish, as well as lean meats, are all exceptional sources of protein, necessary fats, and other such goodies.
Veggie-based diets aren't bad for anyone, but children need the fats and proteins that are in meat. You can really get fats from a vegetable.
I'll use the statement my doctor used: Nothing is bad for you... in moderation.
Eating meat is a cultural norm in the places they're running these advertisements. It's not child abuse, it doesn't necessarily lead directly to health problems (though a strict vegetarian died does for some people), and this is patently absurd.
PETA is the Lindsay Lohan of NPOs.

Yes don't feed your kids meat and get them fat, feed them only vegies so they become malnourished and thin so the bullies who ate meat and built muscle can beat them up easier.
Also why is it a problem for people to eat meat but not animals? Don't tell me it's the abuse thing please because yes I get that's cruel but I'm not abusing the animal and I'm going out on a limb here and saying that it's become far less of an issue now.

Um i learned about this on Penn and Teller's Bullshit episode on Peta and then looked it up and at the time, not sure if she is still in charge but the head of peta was taken some medication that had animal by product in it but it was needed to keep her alive but still the irony isn't missed but no look it up, they do kill a lot of animals
You! *points* What song's tune is that song based on? It sounds eerily familiar. (EDITED: It sounds very familiar to Piano man, or am I way off?)Johnnyallstar said:
OT: You know what would be an appropriate middle ground? Genetically modify animals to lack self-awareness. Then instead of it being the butchering of 'conscious creatures', you are just breeding meat machines, and all ethical issues cease to apply. Also, PETA, you touch my meat, and you'll take its place (and you sure as hell better taste as good as smoked salmon and bacon covered in various melted cheeses).
I was wondering when they'd say something crazier than their milk erodes bones thing. Having people eat less fat is one thing but their are few sources of protein better than meat and denying a child protein in their developing years is child abuse. I think a court in Florida actually ruled that was the case a few years ago. Some vegan couple tried to raise a baby vegan and the kid ended up dying since they didn't want to take him to a hospital and their diet was not working.
Then again, PETA routinely makes the whole anti-animal abuse movement look bad, so, damn it.

Actually, were evolved to be omnivores. We have canines to chew meat and we have molars to eat plants. But yes humans are suppose to eat meat, deal with it hippies.The Apothecarry said:Meat is murder. Sweet, sweet, delicious murder.
We evolved to become carnivores, not herbivores. It's not an opinion: It's SCIENCE.
some people say "Ignorance is Bliss" but PETA takes it to the point where they find a way to over exaggerate their own ignorance. And they wonder why we dislike them so much.
Wish I could tell you, but I stumbled on that song first listening to Dr. Demento.Biosophilogical said:
