Oh for cryin out loud, take a chill pill. Do you seriously think fat people and people who have children that are overweight need you to have a clue?
I don't remember anywhere that said or asked in the title or his post, to what anybodys opinion was of the size or how he should raise his kids. This is about Joey going out for football, which could very well be the first step to a better life style. So instead of cheering Joey on, lets just beat down everything thats wrong with Joey and how hes being raised. People amaze me..
Pointing out a problem on a public forum, especially a sensitive one, with zero solutions doesn’t make you concerned, it just makes you an asshole.
Thanks, guys, but cut her a break. She was well-meaning. Joey will lose some weight as he continues football prep, but he will never be small. The oldest will lose weight as he gets back to campus and back to the gym. The youngest will lose weight as he grows like a weed.
It's a sensitive issue but I believe she wrote it with good intentions and not with any sense of ridicule.
She did suggest that maybe a knowledgable forum member could help so....she at least has an idea for a solution.
Our football team has won 3 games in 3 yrs I believe it is. Hopefully for you it's not like that! Hell, you may not even get to see his games I suppose, being on the road.
That’s exactly how I read it also. It is a very sensitive subject, especially with kids, but I didn’t sense even an ounce of contempt or judgement in her post. I have no doubt that her heart was in the right place and she had nothing but the best of intentions.
As a general rule, we try to stay out of one another's business here. And we never offer advice unless it's requested. Yep, that's how we do things here.
