Shannon Wants Grace to Feel Good About Her Diet
One reason that Shannon doesn’t want to restrict Grace’s diet now is that she wants her daughter to feel good about what she eats as she gets older. She knows that eating disorders are very real, and she doesn’t want Grace to get caught up in that. Women, in particular, commonly have eating disorders, and Shannon doesn’t want Grace to think if she eats a piece of bread, or something, that she should feel bad about it.
Why Do People Care So Much?
Though Shannon has gotten a lot of praise for her decision to raise Grace on the Paleo diet, there are still plenty of people who try to put her down for it. Shannon, for her part, doesn’t understand any of this. In fact, she’s very confused as to why people are making a big deal about it. From Shannon’s viewpoint, she is confused as to why parents will blindly feed their kids chemical-laden food with preservatives.
