Hi there,
I had to face excatly the same problem... My wife is a nurse and my children are 10 and 13...
My advice: don't try to convince nore force anyone... Do what you have to. At first, your family stares at you with funny faces but after a while, they become more and more interested, you begin sharing with them what you prepared for you, they keep on questioning and in the end, in a very slow process, they just understand than vegan is much more than eating green salad!!!
Now I usually prepare food for the 4 of us even if I'm the only one to be vegan... No problem at all. More than this, my wife and kids are now very cautious with what they eat (more than they had ever been). They are very carefull with compositions and avoid eating chemecal products.
To sum it up, if you really want to go raw, it means that you already have found your personal reasons. Don't let anyone to stand between you and your goals. Sharing is the best way.. then your family will be more and more interested and will rely on you to answer their questions (there would be many).
Raw is great!!! Hug
