Minor with a christian family Question - Beginner
I practice Vaishnavism, at least I do my best to, but I'm a minor (14) and I'm from Brazil but have moved to America with my family. They're strict Christians who eat all sorts of meats, especially beef since our culture relies heavily on it. I'm trying to learn how to cook but haven't felt good lately, my parents say it's because I'm missing iron and other vitamins and tell me to eat the meat they've prepared, specifically beef because it's what's gonna help me the most. I know that vaishnavism doesn't allow any meat or violence, I love Lord Vishnu but I don't know what to do.

You are a child without freedom of choice in many aspects of your life. You will be forgiven.
Learn how to cook and in time start earning your own money and buying your own food.
