The worst idea would be to prep that Buck cadaver on wires and move it's carcass in front of the window of the kid's room.

And then get off the roof all bloody and tell them "HAVE YOU SEEN BAMBI? HE IS ALIVE"

But to be honest, the part of my family that is into hunting is teaching their kids from age 0 that meat indeed comes from killing animals.

I am not into hunting..but I once told my fellow 3-5 year olds where the little pigs and cows went, because I new my grampa acutally had a business moving livestock from farmers to the slaughterhouse.

The Truth? Fellow kids couldn't handel the truth.

It's always hard to see progress when you see yourself every day. Years ago I shed about 40 pounds and the first month I didn't see any change. When I had lunch with my sister and her daughters, it was the first thing they noticed.

While your thought to help her visualize progress was on the right track, it's important to remember the first thought is rarely the best thing to say out loud. I mess up when I try to be clever. My idea of clever is never the right thing to say.

Glad you and your relationship survived.
