[quote=Anonymous]OP here - one more thought. If my son asked me why an Asian person looked different from us, I would say it's because he's Asian. I wouldn't be concerned that if, at school, a classmate asked why an Asian student looked different from him, that if he responded "he's Asian" he would get in trouble. But if my son asked me why an obese person looked different from us and I said "she's obese," and explained to him what that means and what the negative implications of that lifestyle are, and he then responded to a similar question at school from a classmate about an obese student by saying that the person is obese and explaining the negative health impacts, he might be labeled a bully.[/quote]
