I think that children just see the world in much more simple terms than we do (and many would say, see the world as it IS, before we bring all our adult bs into it!). I think the Indigo Child movement is a load of crap, but the fact that we should listen to what children have to say is not.
A lot of children go through this realization and decide that they don't want to eat any animals, and I think that we should respect that. Many (if not most) decide that they miss their chicken fingers and hot dogs too much and go back to being omnivores. But some will remain life-long vegetarians (or some variant thereof). Nothing wrong with that! (as long as they are getting all the proper nutrition through other foods)
Me, I was a born carnivore. Little Suze had no moral dilemmas about chowing down on burgers and pork chops. XD
As for the octopus gnocci? I refuse to eat that just because both potato and octopus taste yucky. ;)
