Family & Friends

My co-worker is raising his children as vegetarians. His son is very skinny. I’m concerned. What can I say to him without being rude?

My co-worker Jeff is raising his kids as vegetarians. His son is 10 and his daughter is 6. The daughter looks normal sized, but the son is short and very skinny. He’s a smart kid, but he looks weak. It’s very concerning.

Jeff is a Seventh-day Adventist Christian and the head elder at his church. Part of their health message encourages members to be vegetarian/vegan. I’m sure he means well, but I fear that boy will grow up to resent him.

What can I say without getting too much pushback? Jeff is a valuable member on our sales team, I’d hate to ruin my relationship with the guy.
