i know if they had done this with out informing me especially with my youngest child I would have been gunning for her resignation too
i am not a vegetarian and would when they were old enough show them an abattoir some thing many here have never seen i have killed animals for various reasons from chickens for food to putting ( helping ) a beloved pet down
all of these things and how you explain them depend on the child and how it was brought up yes some see it from birth in real terms ( though few now ) if brought up on a farm but most don't and a lot of us would prefer the Kids stay kids as long as they can rather than being forced into the adult world for anything

the kids weren't marched to the abattoir and forced to watch you know ,everybody ,children and parents alike were told exactly what was going to happen from start to finish and the children were fully involved even to the point of deciding what would happen to the meat .
We have discussed this many times on this forum about how 1 or 2 parents get something into their heads and decide they need to act for the majority and be outraged for everyone on behalf of the little darlings and usually it ends up with a perfectly good teacher losing their job
