Do you agree with a proposal to put dangerously obese children into temporary foster care?
The government is crossing into dangerous territory when it begins to remove children from parents for things like obesity! This would be a good situation to enforce some type of mandatory counseling, but nothing as drastic as removal from custody. The trauma of separation would outweigh any benefit in physical improvement Kevin in Edgewood.
I am confused. Right before the question aired, there was a tv ad asking money for 'one quarter' of US children who are hungry. Why not put the over weight kids and all the 'hungry' kids in foster care so the rest of us can bear the cost of raising other people children. James- Rosedale

Kids who are in trouble with the law all the time, out at 2am and suspended from school should be put in foster care. NOT kids who eat twinkies!
ReplyDeleteSeriously? Do you think the government has gone a little too far?! Where the hell do we live?
ReplyDeleteSome kids are inherently big and some small. Tossing a kid into foster care because of genetics is lunacy.
