Who Is Most Out Of Bounds Here?

There is brown fat (baby fat) and white fat. Brown fat is a healthy type of fat that is actually darker in color. Once thought to only exist in babies, researchers now believe adults have it too.

Dave said something rude and untrue.

DH said the truth.

Agree with this. One guy called another guy’s daughter fat, not to her. One guy blew up the other guy’s marriage.

No Dave called a girl fat and blew up his marriage. DH just pointed them both out to the public.

+1. But everyone here is crazy

Either way it doesn’t matter a bridge is burned to a really screwed up person. Bye Felicia.

I’m team DH and I love this. I wish my DH would bring that kind of big D energy when it comes to standing up for his kids.

I consider myself to be a pretty polite and chill person but a woman once made a rude comment to me about my child who had just had a seizure in public and she interpreted his behavior as a tantrum. I’m a large woman, and was inches from her face screaming within about 2 seconds. She was terrified and immediately apologized and cried. I’m not proud of what I did exactly, but there’s something primal that gets triggered in us when our kids are attacked.

I love your DH for going all Papa Bear for your DD.

This. Proper action would have been to delete his post and block him in FB. Your dh is insane.

Dh didn’t care to tell the truth until Dave hinted at his daughter being overweight. So cheating on your wife is fine until he feels insulted. Something is seriously wrong with that man, sorry.

What kind of message does it send to your dd that hinting that she’s a bit heavy is such an insult that her dad is going to go nuclear over it?

That is not being a protective papa bear, that is a recipe for an eating disorder.

If even the suggestion that she might be a bit overweight causes dad to fly off the handle, what does it tell the dd about how important her weight is to her father? This is not the win some of you are suggesting it is.

Exactly. He was fine with Dave's cheating until Dave wronged him personally. He could have gone about this a million different ways that would also stand up for his daughter but he chose to blow up someone's marriage publically. I don't see much virtue in that. Also, do we know for sure that Dave called her fat or just wanted to say that the food at USC is great?

Truth needs to be told. (I wish one of my exDHs friends told me of the affair)

But now delete your post entirely so Dave’s family can deal with the matter privately.

I would have been mortified if my mother had done that when I had a seizure.

You think people have an obligation to police other people's marriages? Stay in your lane unless you want to get called out.

It’s not that weight is such a huge deal. The friend was making a dig at DD, and in a public forum, and in the context of celebrating DD’s accomplishments. It’s not about weight, it’s about trying to diminish DD and doing so publicly.
