She should just leave her porch light off, or hand out granola bars or something. What do you call a Halloween Scrooge? Miserable people just loooove to share unhappiness. If I lived in her neighborhood, I'D probably egg her house! Not really, but I'd want to. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/wow-for-halloween-woman-in-nd-will-hand-out-letters-to-obese-children#post-1186155 Wed, 30 Oct 2013 18:43:15 +0000 mrsbookworm 1186155@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Adults in her town should ring her doorbell and hand her letters that extoll the virtues of kindness.

Way to destroy the self-esteem of young, impressionable children! Can you imagine being 8 yrs old, trick or treating with several of your friends and they all get candy whilst you get this note? And being old enough to read it?!? Ugh, that is just horrible!</p> <p>If she feels so strongly about, she should pass out a healthy snack, like individual packets of dried fruit or raisins, not try to destroy the self-esteem of young children, just horrible. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/wow-for-halloween-woman-in-nd-will-hand-out-letters-to-obese-children#post-1186100 Wed, 30 Oct 2013 18:27:55 +0000 pui 1186100@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Wow, it's simply none of her business. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/wow-for-halloween-woman-in-nd-will-hand-out-letters-to-obese-children#post-1186096 Wed, 30 Oct 2013 18:26:41 +0000 Mrs. Lemon-Lime 1186096@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not cool. She is making a whole lot of assumptions about the parent and child.</p> <p>Halloween was never a candy fest at my house. Yeah, we brought home a bunch of candy, but we picked out a few favorites split that with our parents (ha!) and threw out the rest. </p> <p>If she really wants to help children then she can hand out raisins (always a favorite treat at least 2-3 neighbors did every year). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/wow-for-halloween-woman-in-nd-will-hand-out-letters-to-obese-children#post-1186082 Wed, 30 Oct 2013 18:22:41 +0000 MamaJ 1186082@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Maybe she should mind her own business!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/wow-for-halloween-woman-in-nd-will-hand-out-letters-to-obese-children#post-1186005 Wed, 30 Oct 2013 18:00:08 +0000 pastemoo 1186005@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@lovehoneybee: I'll join with you on that bet!<br /> Jerk face!

I appreciate her desire to encourage healthy eating habits in children, but there are better ways to encourage that don't include being cruel or shaming children. Hand out a healthy snack if you're against candy, handing out humiliating notes is mean spirited &amp; unproductive. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/wow-for-halloween-woman-in-nd-will-hand-out-letters-to-obese-children#post-1185724 Wed, 30 Oct 2013 16:34:56 +0000 MCD919 1185724@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yeah, this is very harsh. Don't participate in Halloween if you feel that strongly about it, or hand out healthy snacks or toys or something. I doubt she's the picture of perfect health herself. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/wow-for-halloween-woman-in-nd-will-hand-out-letters-to-obese-children#post-1185699 Wed, 30 Oct 2013 16:28:28 +0000 FarmWifeGina 1185699@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MsMamaBear: Agreed. I just had this conversation with someone who posted something really offensive on Facebook, something to the effect of, "Carbs don't make you fat, fats don't make you fat, you make yourself fat by how much you eat!" Really? Do you even KNOW? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/wow-for-halloween-woman-in-nd-will-hand-out-letters-to-obese-children#post-1185684 Wed, 30 Oct 2013 16:25:29 +0000 lovehoneybee 1185684@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>What an asshole.</p> <p>$50 says her house gets egged. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/wow-for-halloween-woman-in-nd-will-hand-out-letters-to-obese-children#post-1185677 Wed, 30 Oct 2013 16:23:43 +0000 Vegmama 1185677@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Cole: I just saw your response, after posting mine!! I'm on the same page as you. So hurtful for those little ones!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/wow-for-halloween-woman-in-nd-will-hand-out-letters-to-obese-children#post-1185675 Wed, 30 Oct 2013 16:22:58 +0000 Vegmama 1185675@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I want to slap this woman. It's none of her business. Food for thought: I know a woman who's daughter appears to be very overweight ... maybe obese. She's very large. Well, it's because SHE HAS CANCER, and the steroids (I think) she's on makes her very large. They feed her a beautiful diet (to support her recovery), but the drugs are taking quite the toll on her little body. So yeah, I try not to judge large kids, because of my personal experience ... and this letter is way out of control!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/wow-for-halloween-woman-in-nd-will-hand-out-letters-to-obese-children#post-1185673 Wed, 30 Oct 2013 16:22:19 +0000 stargal 1185673@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>disgusting! its none of her business to judge other people's children. she is just a mean spirited bitter lady who has no intention to acutally "help" anyone with this letter. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/wow-for-halloween-woman-in-nd-will-hand-out-letters-to-obese-children#post-1185663 Wed, 30 Oct 2013 16:20:22 +0000 MsMamaBear 1185663@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>This is SO rude. Even if the kid is 200lbs riding around on a motorized cart, she still shouldn't hand them a letter. Their size is not her business nor will it hurt her life.</p> <p>Like above, if she REALLY wanted to help, she'd hand out something healthy.</p> <p>Skinny doesn't mean healthy. Just means they aren't fat. I have a coworker who eats cookies, pies, cokes, and candy ALL.Day.Long and is thin. Is she healthier than I b/c I'm overweight, but losing weight and eating healthy foods? And I can run a mile (but she can't run to save her life.)? No.</p> <p>Sorry about the tangent. lol </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/wow-for-halloween-woman-in-nd-will-hand-out-letters-to-obese-children#post-1185651 Wed, 30 Oct 2013 16:17:28 +0000 Boheme 1185651@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Whatever happened to just turning off your porch light and not handing out candy? If she feels so strongly about it, there's an idea.<br /> She obviously has issues. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/wow-for-halloween-woman-in-nd-will-hand-out-letters-to-obese-children#post-1185645 Wed, 30 Oct 2013 16:16:33 +0000 SugarplumsMom 1185645@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>What a biatch! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/wow-for-halloween-woman-in-nd-will-hand-out-letters-to-obese-children#post-1185642 Wed, 30 Oct 2013 16:16:01 +0000 BSB 1185642@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yeah, just so horrible and judgmental. Why punish the children? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/wow-for-halloween-woman-in-nd-will-hand-out-letters-to-obese-children#post-1185638 Wed, 30 Oct 2013 16:15:39 +0000 MsMini 1185638@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would leave her a mail bomb to thank her for her letter. Bitch. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/wow-for-halloween-woman-in-nd-will-hand-out-letters-to-obese-children#post-1185637 Wed, 30 Oct 2013 16:15:12 +0000 artsyfartsy 1185637@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Cole: I would be so devastated if I was on treatment for a major illness and one of the side effects was weight gain and then someone called me fat. Like for real? That's heartbreaking! Like dealing with the fact you have lung problems isn't bad enough. She has no right to make anyone feel that way. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/wow-for-halloween-woman-in-nd-will-hand-out-letters-to-obese-children#post-1185634 Wed, 30 Oct 2013 16:14:24 +0000 mrs.shinerbock 1185634@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>That's incredibly mean. Who is she to judge and make these kids feel bad. Besides, a ton of sugar is not great for anyone, so if she feels that strongly about it, maybe she should just not hand out any candy to anyone. </p>
