[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Put her in a diet and make sharp, biting remarks about her weight. Shame her while eating. Also make sure she gets a deep tan because tan fat looks better. Signed, my mother [/quote] There's a huge difference between fat shaming and responsibly parenting. A responsible parent should not ignore a 30 pound weight gain in 3 months in a tween or teen, regardless of what caused it. Yes, it needs to be handled carefully to preserve her self esteem, but to ignore it would be negligence. Too many parents let their kids grow up to become overweight, unhealthy adults because it's a hard thing to address properly. It's a very small percentage of people who are overweight for reasons beyond their control. [/quote]
