I wondered if people on here believe that it is ok for people with intellectual or health disabilities to eat meat on Good Fiday. I have a family member staying with me on Good Friday who is unaware that they have been christened in the Catholic Church, is it wrong of me to allow them to eat meat on a day that I would not eat it myself. I am not a strict Catholic, there are just things I don't do, a girlfriend has told me that their is a dispensation for the disabled, especially if they don't have the capacity to decide for themselves. Once again I am not a strict or practicing Catholic,I just have things that I don't do!

And if it's a religious home (like, say, an Anglicare home) that observes no meat on Good Friday, then they don't get meat on Good Friday.

SEE what I mean? (Above) Rotten swines!! Its just pure EVIL and Spiteful. Care Home? THAT is NOT CARE!! Its abuse! I bet they'd go MENTAL if someone came home that day with a Burger. Poor old buggers!
