Ahhh. How this brings back memories of my own “fat” history. My mom and many others after her would say…”It’s not my fault your fat.” No it wasn’t their fault I felt bad about myself either…or maybe it was.

[...] Aha….Vindication at last. Now, if I could just go back in time, and counter all those fat head jokes. No Comments so far Leave a comment RSS feed for comments on this post. TrackBack URI Leave a comment Line and paragraph breaks automatic, e-mail address never displayed, HTML allowed:

People like that feed on other people’s pain because they do not have the courage to ever improve themselves; they think it is macho or tough to pick on children and make their lives miserable. They are afraid of risk and afraid of life in general and don’t know how to really live it. They have that “backwoods” approach to life, their “own way” of doing things. They never learn, they do what their parents did, their grandparents did, and so on and so on. They go through life acting as if they have never done wrong,they don’t even try to justify their actions! Don’t you waste another second, go on to greater things. Forget the “little” man. If he never regrets the things he did to you, he will be the one to reap the most of the hurt from them in the end. I love ya and I love reading your work.

My mother (dad wouldn’t stand for it) let my sister call me Thunder Thighs and several other horrible nicknames for years. To this day, they see it as harmless teasing because I wasn’t really fat. I didn’t know that. I thought I was. People never realize the damage they can do to a child and how it can follow that child into adulthood. Then everyone wants to wonder why little girls have eating disorders. This is why. You were an adorable child and even if you weren’t, all of that name calling was totally uncalled for.

Boooo! By: she she — Mon, 15 Jan 2007 19:25:55 +0000 Families can do so much damage and they never seem to realize the impact they have – not just on the child we were but on the adult we grow into. You looked like a beautiful child to me. By: kristy kristy — Mon, 15 Jan 2007 19:08:18 +0000 You already know what I have to say about this and how I feel. So I just want to say that you are a lovely, strong, intelligent, and beautiful person. I send my best to you. Thanks for your supportive words and I hope I can offer mine to you anytime.

You were sweet and NORMAL – maybe even on the dainty side then. By: Lux Lisbon Lux Lisbon — Sat, 13 Jan 2007 16:34:40 +0000 My dad once told me I was getting as big as a house. I was 135lbs. I’m 5’10. But even at my lowest 128lbs I thought I was a cow. By: Barbara Barbara — Sat, 13 Jan 2007 03:50:16 +0000 Hello! Dropping off another comment for you!
