Try to take emotion out of it and tell him it’s not nice to call people that. Nbd

I'm not sure if my DSs (who are 5 and 7) know that. They're pretty oblivious and I'm not sure that it's come up before.

Better up your parenting game. Do you teach them anything?

If my kids called me fat, I’d light them up—they need to learn fast and early not to disrespect other people’s appearances—especially a female family member.

I would not ignore it, that’s how we end up with asshole husbands feeling free to call their pregnant wives fat.

I haven't taught them to call people fat, so I haven't had to teach them not to call people fat yet.

Another parenting fail on my part, I guess.

What does that mean light them up? To you? As an immigrant I do not understand. Beat them? Scream at them? But, we don't end up with a**hole wives or women like that?! Maybe if people would stop normalizing being overweight, we wouldn't have obesity crisis!

Whatever, as long as you are allowed to beat your kids, right??

This is one of those things that whether you've said this sort of thing around your kid or not it is going to reflect poorly on you, as a parent, if your kid walks around saying rude things.

Your kid called you fat which isn't nice. Say: "Robert, that's rude. We don't comment on other people's bodies like that". Might as well get that established now before your kid makes equally rude comments about disabled people or anyone else that looks different to them.

Does she also teach her kids to be smart and successful by pointing at service workers and calling the stupid? Come on. Teaching your kid to make rude comments is not good parenting. In fact, it's a great way to ensure that your kid will be called into the principal's office. No one likes a bully...

Also, some people get fat due to health issues. Would you teach your kid to torment a person for having a bald head due to chemo? Kindness is underrated!

Ha, ha. I am the lady that teaches her kids manners and also doesn't light them up! Common sense is lacking here today. Must be millennial pp above. Maybe you are just overweight and angry? My kids are not fat, nor are DH and I, and my kids have never called anyone fat. But, they were certainly thought about proper eating habits and I cook and now as older teens they know what is healthy and what is not. How come you didn't answer the real question? What does lighting up your kids mean??

Please. She asked what "light them up" means. It means yell, doesn't it? Or shriek at them. Or beat them. That's your definition of excellent parenting...

I'm not the one who made the "lighting up kids" comment. I do think that there is a vast difference between teaching your kid healthy habits and making disparaging comments about fat people. Nobody wants to hear your precious little tot's opinion about their body. If your kid is pointing to people and calling them fat, old, big boobed or whatever else, you probably need to get a handle on that.
