A loved one? The school didn't get the kids to bring in their gran and have a human BBQ. It was a lamb, they don't run wild and free, they are bred for food and giving children an insight into where food actually comes from is a good idea IMO.

It's not like they took them on a school trip to see wee mint sauce or whatever it was called getting slaughtered in the abbatoir.

you dont have to be a vegetarian to be against this

see post #32

and loved one yes kids can become very attached very quickly
