[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]Continuing to harangue someone about weight when they have not asked your opinion and you are not the child's physician is, in itself, akin to bullying. This kind of holier-than-thou backseat parenting is deeply offensive. [/quote]

Ok, just want to make sure I understand - suggesting that in addition to addressing bullying at school it is indeed the mom's responsibility to address the child's weight issue, if she feels he is overweight, is bullying.  Telling someone to STFU is perfectly acceptable.  Got it.  [/quote]

Nicely put.

Also, being fat is not just the business of the fat person. If I had a dollar for every time I couldn't sit on the metro because some fat ass (literally) was taking up one and a half seats, I'd be retired. Also, fat people cost more in medical care but don't pay more for their insurance, meaning healthy people subsidize them. And treating fatness as a valid lifestyle results in the uglification of the population, fewer marriageable persons, a shorter lifespan, etc, etc. Being fat is bad, and there's no shame in thinking or saying so.
