Quote:In my opinion, there's just certain things in life that you just don't do.. You don't question anyone else's faith, political stance or reasoning as they've come up with those for a reason specific for them and them alone. She may have had a reason for handing out those flyers for obese children, but she crossed the line when she handed them out. It's not her place to lecture anyone else's kids in that matter. If she didn't want to hand out candy for Halloween to obese kids, then she should have done the correct thing and shut off her front porch light like anyone else would with common sense in this country.. I don't care what kind of intentions she thought she had, you just don't try to parent anyone else's kids. Those kids may seem like they need it, but you just don't do it. I guarantee you, she has many, many flaws of her own.. And I'd love to tell her about some of those..

 

To quote one of my favorite comedians..

 

"Let me tell YOU something about YOURSELF that YOU don't know".. 

Without getting into specifics because of the rules of this message board, I'd say that the faith, political stance, and reasoning of every person should be question if the effects extend beyond themselves and those who choose to be associated with them. This message board may not be the place for it, and handing out letters on Halloween definitely isn't the place for it, but questions can create good, healthy debates that could at least extend your own knowledge of the viewpoint of the "opposition".


It has to be done in the right place at the right time, but to never question things like faith, political stance, and reasoning is doing a disservice to yourself and the other person.

 

Quote:If she's worried about the health of the children...hand out healthy snacks to ALL the children! If candy I'd "bad", it's bad for everyone. This year's skinny kid could be next years chubby one and vice versa!!

 

Well, that's the scheme. She's establishing an annual cycle in order to allow her to start selling advertising space on her Fat Kid Letters.
