[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't think being overweight should be considered a "special need".[/quote] It most certainly can. "Special Needs" refers to anyone who require assistance for medical, mental, or pyschological disabilities. OP's DD certainly fits that criteria, as does my DH who has diabetes and requires a special diet and certain food at certain times of the day. So does the kid with anxorexia or bulemia or who binges. "Special needs" covers a broad range of disabilities, not all of them visible.[/quote]
