Millions of parents will be told their child is too fat in warning letters to be sent out within weeks - but officials will steer away from using the word 'obese'.
New guidance means all parents will be told how heavy their children are after they are weighed at school - but parents of the fattest children will not get the plain truth as the 'O' word has been banned.
The decision to omit the word 'obese' and replace it with 'very overweight' has been branded 'prissy and namby-pamby'.**How about this as a way to do things:
Dear Parent and/or Guardian,
Your child is an obese gut load. No seriously, fat is just not in the same ballpark. Should your offspring put on much more weight I am sure they will have their own gravitational field.
Needs to lay off the chips and pies and get to know the joys that is greenery.
Regards
PS When I saw your child in swimming class I thought for a brief moment that a beluga whale had somehow appeared in the schools pool.
