Do you know what Prader-Willi Syndrome is?
Do you know how rare that condition is? It's about 1 in 20,000 compared to 1 in 5 children being obese.
can't believe I have to say this, but even if kids have no genetic or medical reason for being fat, bullying children relentlessly is still unkind and unhelpful
If your dog constantly ate other dog's shit off the ground, would you smack its nose every time it did it, or would you just say that's how he expresses his feelings and we should encourage shit-eating?
There's a reason the phrase about being cruel to be kind exists
I'll take an obese Willi any day
Wait that came out wrong
So what?
