To think some IDIOT might've taken me away from my family, cause he's fat, it makes my head want to explode.<BR/><BR/>Just, I can't put it into words, it's like them taking the Jews from their homes, and putting them on the trains for the concentration camps.

The thing is, the court system will say they didn't force him into WLS, that it was his choice. But what kind of choice is it, when you're told you're too fat to adopt a baby now, even though you were just as fat when you adopted a child years ago? So you have the choice of WLS to lose a lot of weight in a hurry so you can adopt a child you've had since he was a week old, or you can stay fat and lose that child that you've come to love and value? Yeah, that's some choice, all right.<BR/>There should be a special place in some hell somewhere for asshats that force those kinds of decisions on people.vesta44https://www.blogger.com/profile/15480692717585745934noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8397186280973403909.post-31857996774215068572007-12-04T14:59:00.000-06:002007-12-04T14:59:00.000-06:00That's incredibly scary!

If they let him adopt after this it would be an interesting test case to start fighting for a weight-discrimination law in that state!

That he has been put in this position of agreeing to be mutilated in order to keep his child is horrifying. Thank you for bringing posting about it.Corinna Makrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08133306894224896347noreply@blogger.com
