"I'm not fat, I'm just big boned..."

OK this crap of Poli.-Correctness has gone too damn far. If a kid is fat, the kid is fat. Not obese, not buoyantly svelte, not chubby, and don't even say "at risk of overweight."

THEY ARE FAT, PLAIN & SIMPLE.

Do not let them have three double cheezeys for breakfast and a whole box of sugar-zingers before you set their fat asses in the double wide back seat to take them to school. Also Twinkies, Ho-Ho's, & Moon Pies are not part of a normal meal.

They are snacks, nothing more, and should be ate one or two at a time.

NOT THE WHOLE DAMN BOX!

Political correctness is not a substitute of good/smart parenting, and by doing so avoids the issue that YOUR KID IS FAT! Even if the doctors debate how to refer to your overly, and very much avoidably, bloated spawn of blubber.

The kids @ school & on the playground have yet to be brainwashed to lamely dance around issues such like this.
They will be:

• hurtful,
  
• cruel,
  
• and without mercy to your child.

And that is many times worse.

Why? Because they will not use the word obese either.

Blessed Be, & put down that damn Choc-o-dile & feed your damn kid something healthy.
