What this calls for is a special mix of psychology and extreme violence...
Is it the Truth?
Is it Fair to all concerned?
Will it build Goodwill and Better Friendships?
Will it be Beneficial to all concerned?

Whilst I do believe that there are certain nutrients that babies get from dairy foods that are hard to substitute for, I know it must be possible to do a better job of feeding a baby on a vegan diet. I am sure there are lots of babies with dairy allergies who are perfectly healthy, and there is far more variation on vegetarian food than soy milk and apple juice.

Analysis of ancient Chinese texts reveals that the soy bean was originally cultivated for its nitrogen-fixing qualities and not as a food source. This is because soy beans contain potent enzyme inhibitors that cause intestinal problems, cancer and growth retardation. Soy is also high in phytic acid, which blocks the absorption of essential mineral, such as iron, calcium, magnesium and zinc.
It was during the Chou Dynasty (1134-246 BC) that soy beans were first designated as the fifth sacred grain, along with barley, wheat, millet and rice, as the Chinese had learned to ferment soy beans to make them edible. Fermentation of cooked beans to make soy sauce, miso, natto and tempeh removes not only enzyme inhibitors but phytates as well. The process of precipitation to make tofu and bean curd removes a portion of the enzyme ihibitors but only small amounts of the phytates.
Miso is thus superior to tofu from a nutritional point of view. It is a salty paste - smooth or chunky - with a meat like flavour. It is used as a seasoning and as a dietary staple in the preparation of miso soup in Japanese homes. It is rich in omega-3 fatty acids and has a complete protein profile because it is made with grains as well as soy beans.
For optimal nutritional benefit, miso and tofu should be combined with fish stock [po. fish stock contains high levels of minerals, that make up for some of the effects of phytates in tofu]. In the Orient, these products are consumed in small amounts as nourishing condiments-not as substitutes for animal foods.
Various phytoestrogens, such as genistein, diadzen and isoflavones, which occur in high quantities in modern cultivars of soybeans, are currently promoted as panaceas for heart disease, cancer and osteoporosis. Analysis shows that they are goitrogens - substances that depress thyroid function.

I don't think the punishment was harsh enough. Maybe it's because I'm a pediatrician, but any parent would be able to see that their child was wasting to death.

They killed a baby. It's not that difficult to take care of a newborn. Oh yeah, it's a hell of a lot of work, but it's not difficult.

if the baby like most are after being released from hospital are monitored by doctors etcetera than surely a malnourished baby would have been admitted immediately.

Doc, seriously, WTF do you know about being the sole carer for a new born that isn't from a text book, from afar or from a hospital educated environment? All the study, conversations with parents and baby sitting sessions in the world wouldn't prepare you for what can actually be involved when you're in a house by yourself (perhaps in the middle of nowhere in this case? I dunno) after suffering the trauma of giving birth quickly followed by no sleep, no medical or other family support, while having no experience of a new born baby and suffering the sometimes huge psychological impacts all that can amount to.

Personally in my life I feel I made a mistake in that I gave my daughter soybased baby formulas although I had no evidnece she wouldn't handle milk based ones. (Not enjoying close contact with piranhas I don't tend to breastfeed babies once they got teeth...) Now I know more about soy/thyroid I wouldn't do that again.

but what you you are saying is that your children do not have the right in their own choice however impossible that is at such a young age, but as to make up their own minds, so in fact by you and your partners forcing diet kind of puts you in the same predicament in being judged by others.
