The woman called "Cheryl" who plans to accost small children whom she opines to be "moderately obese."
I suppose you have a right to celebrate Halloween anyway you see fit.
What I fail to see in your "plan" of giving whom you deem "moderately" obese a letter instead of candy is going to do other than completely shatter the self-esteem of an unassuming child. Regardless of stature, children want to be accepted and fit in with the peers who, all different shapes and sizes, will all be out trick or treating.
I mean, are you going to be standing out there with a BMI measuring device to devise who is your idea of moderately obese? What if their stature is due to a medical condition and this is one of the only nights of the year they can get out of the house and not be stared at by other people? What if they only food they get comes from a food bank or donations? What if this is the only day their parents take them out of the house and they live a miserable life stuck inside?
You seem to be forgetting that not all children are over weight due to circumstances their parents, or they, can control. For you to make the assumption that a child is your idea of overweight because they have lazy parents or are lazy children is not only asinine, but hurtful as well! You could very well be creating an eating disorder in several children as you shoot down their self esteem with words of hate.
SHAME ON YOU!
