You think that fat kids shouldn't aspire to have self esteem? Are you one of these idiots that think that constant derision is the only way to get kids to lose weight?
They have low self esteem, so they don't care enough about themselves to do the work required in dieting and excersise. Junk food is a quicker and easier antedote to their misery, so they eat. It's a cycle that will eventually lead to an early death.
What these kids need is a reason to give a shit about themselves, which is really fucking difficult when society does nothing but tell them how ashamed they should be.
If you believe that old movie cliche where somebody gets picked on and bullied enough to get mad and find some sort of hidden "inner fire" to solve their problem just in time for the big climax, you should really stop watching movies.
In our fucked up country, all people care about are atheletes and movie/music stars. If your kids don't naturally lean toward one of these futures, they should be tortured and humiliated until they do.
Right?
