@ukit - In response to my post above:
I think that cancer and obesity are two totally different things. If someone got breast cancer then it would not be from anything they did. If someone died of obesity b/c they stuffed their mouth full of twinkies and mccdonalds everyday then it would be their own fault.
Plus I wrote "own damn fault" b/c that is what some people would say. I really just wanted to know how people thought b/c their responses reflect their political views for the most part I believe.
Personally I think the parents are fricking retards for letting their child, who has no clue of the consequences of eating like that will cost him in his future, destroy himself. They should held be responsible. Some people say the government should help the poor chap out, but the government didn't do it and his parents should fix the mess they made. Others would say it's his own fault, but I think he is too young to be held responsible for that. If he was older perhaps.
- Laying blame doesn't fix the problem though. If it was the parents poor lifestyle choices, why would you think they'd change?locustsloth
- change? And if you think punishing arguably bad parenting is gonna fly with anyone, you got another thing cominglocustsloth
