fat people have feelings, remember this.
i have a son who is a little chunky, and for the past year he wont go swimming with his school, why? because his classmates call him nasty names, blubber man, whale..you get the idea.
they even jumped on him in the pool, trying to see if they could make him sink, as they told him with all his blubber he wouldn't.
despite repeated trips to the school, the taunts still continued, being not choosen in sport, and the kids shouting earthquake if he ran in the school yard, poking his stomach and trying to trip him up to see if he would bounce.
this summer he wouldn't take his top of in the sea, as he said he would be laughed at.
he now wont go out once he gets home from school, as he says he would rather stay in than be subjected to all the taunts.
my son is twelve years old, before you say it, i have been to see the parents concerned, and lets put it this way i can see where the kids get their behaviour from.
i put this on as i am fed up with all the posts regarding the girl from what ever program it is, and the name calling, yes it may be aimed at someone else but it still aimed at a person with feeings.
no she may not come on here, but i still dont think it is called for to put all this kind of name calling on here.
sorry for anyone who is offended by my post.
