Another kid has complication from obesity related surgery

A couple in South Texas is suing a doctor after their daughters obesity surgery. I can't believe a parent would put their kid through that kind of torture. I can't believe that a parent would want so much for their child to be thin, they will subject them to surgery to "fix" them.

I feel so sad for this child, in so many ways. I wonder if he or she was made to feel less of a person, that they were bad or not worthy of being happy. I can't imagine projecting such fat hate onto a child, especially when as a parent you should be setting an example of love, compassion, and acceptance. How do you force your child into that kind of world? How can you teach a child that there is something wrong with them just because they are fat?

I hope this kid figures it out one day.
