[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's offensive to people who've starved. I never thought babies were cute because of their healthy baby fat, until I met an Ethiopian baby who'd been flown to the US and was literally, starving to death. She had no baby fat. After walking out of the hospital the next time I saw a healthy, fat baby I cried. It changed how I interpret the word "starving" and I don't let my daughter say it anymore. [/quote] well, then I am sure you also tell her never to say "gee, I am so depressed, I studied all week end and I still flank the math test" because you know, there are clinically depressed people out there who live a life of hell and even kill themselves......or "my hair are awful today" because you know, there are people who undergo chemo or have other health problems and their hair really does not look good, and so on.[/quote]
