The events happened a year ago, but it was not until a few days ago that we learned about them through various information media. The complaint of a client of a vegan restaurant called El Vergel, transcended to social networks, and as we all know, it is very easy to lose our nerves and "our papers" when we interact online ... About this (off topic, totally) I really do not know how we dare to tell the youngest to behave on the Internet as in real life, if later we are adults incapable of dialogue and it costs us little to insult the next.
But I come back from the digression, that here what is involved is to raise a small reflection about that place that exposes its rules on the door (those that its owners have wanted to put, that they have created a business for that), indicating that You cannot enter the premises with food of animal origin, understanding that it is extended to children. And what happened to the woman whose complaint collected by TripAdvisor, has been the trigger for all this, was that she prepared to feed a 4-month-old baby with a bottle, and the waiter (also in charge of the premises) warned her of the norm with a written card, which was slid across the table (to keep him from feeling bad).
Some think that in reality there is no problem, and even more knowing that when families with children make reservations, they are reminded of the prohibition, others are scandalized because “how is it intended to leave a baby without eating!”; the latter seems to confront the right to food of a child against the norms. In any case we should position ourselves between "totalitarianism", which I do not know if it is such (so that these events do not remind the mothers who are prevented from breastfeed in public) Y respect for a philosophy of life based on respect for animal life. In fact, in an initial response to the first criticisms days ago, it is said that “the 'truly humiliated' mothers are those who are raped throughout their lives to have babies who are stolen and quartered so that humans can snatch their milk from them. for them".
Look, I have read that on the part of El Vergel, it has been recognized that perhaps the way in which they managed that incident was not the most indicated; If I had the power to solve this mess, I would leave it there. Because apologies should also be valued. And this I say knowing that there have been more complaints, but it is that those responsible for the business have also seen many times how baby food made with animal products had been introduced.
What is really very ugly, is to take advantage of the facts related, to launch a discrediting campaign against the restaurant, which I find very unfair (Even former employees come out defending an ethical business model that treats workers very well. Agree that the mother must have felt bad, and impotent, because you cannot explain to a baby of that age what is expected to drink their milk, also agreeing that the waiter could not know what kind of milk was in the bottle, but let's see ... they are telling us that there are explicit rules, and they acknowledge a failure in communication with the customer. By the way, for the moment the RS of El Vergel have been closed.
Really, let us have the ability to put ourselves on the side of everyone involved, and try to understand.
