It is true that the story did not describe the diet in detail. It
is also true that a parent must be irrational, insane, or a
deluded "true believer" before they starve their child in the
service of (raw) dietary ideology. Furthermore, constant denial is
required for one to persist as a true believer in what is obviously
a false dietary pseudo-religion.

Yet another child has died on a raw diet and already the rationalizations
and excuses have begun. I'm not surprised.
