[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If my kids called me fat, I’d light them up—they need to learn fast and early not to disrespect other people’s appearances—especially a female family member.

I would not ignore it, that’s how we end up with asshole husbands feeling free to call their pregnant wives fat.[/quote]
What does that mean light them up? To you? As an immigrant I do not understand. Beat them? Scream at them? But, we don't end up with a**hole wives or women like that?! Maybe if people would stop normalizing being overweight, we wouldn't have obesity crisis![/quote]

It’s akin to the same response that I’d have if they looked at you and told you to go back to your own country, or if they said something rude about gay people or people of another color.  Needle off the record, time stops, kid is removed from the situation, extremely serious discussion about how that is not acceptable in any form, and yes, if I need to yell to make my point I will.  I consider it to be that serious and I want my kid to REMEMBER how serious this stuff is and how it is JUST NOT ACCEPTABLE.  But, you don’t understand as you’re too busy judging people.[/quote]
