I thought you implied he is stronger because he doesn't eat meat 
If you don't mind me asking; Have you told him that eating meat is cruel and causes all kinds of diseases? Because that would be honest, that's what he undoubtedly picks (has picked)up from you. And if the words don't match the energy/how you truly feel, it's generally considered not so honest. Kids are often well-attuned to their parents emotions and how that corresponds to their words/actions. So, if you believe eating meat is cruel, yet you tell him it's ok to eat meat if he wants, it doesn't match up. And he probably won't actually believe you.
Parenting, in general, is a subject that's very dear to my heart so that's why I have little self-control on deciding whether I should post or not. It's not my intention to be intrusive, but if you consider it as such do tell.
