[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If this is true it's absolutely horrific and the teacher / coach who did this should be fired.[/quote] "Horrific"?! Oh, please. If anything, this creates an incentive for the kids to become and stay fit. Nothing wrong with it. [/quote] If you ask me, there's nothing wrong with a little fat shaming, especially if it helps to reduce problems like child obesity. Frankly, the schools like other parts of civil society could use more shaming over a variety of problems. [/quote] Problem is (among other things), at that age, weight doesn't necessarily correlate with fat. A taller girl is probably going to weigh more than a shorter girl, and will get fat shamed even though she's not overweight. [/quote]
