Loved to death!
Is it just me or does everyone feel very sad for that poor (not so) little darling being loved to death by his Mum and Grandma in England?
8 year old Connor McCreadie weighs about one hundred kilos. He lives on a diet of meat and chips and chocolate biscuits. His Mum Nicola claims Connor demands to be fed every 20 minutes, that so far he’s broken four beds, six toilet seats and five bikes.
Connor has early onset arthritis, he is unable to wash himself unaided and because he can’t walk very far, rarely goes to school. That’s how he came to the attention of the authorities in the first place…
When questioned by the media, Nicola said even if he was put on a diet, Connor will trantrum and end up stealing chips and biscuits….why were those sort of foods in the house at all? According to Nicola, shopping is difficult, because they are limited to only buying the foods that Connor likes.
This week authorities have been debating whether Connor should be put into foster care until he loses weight.
I honestly think they’ve got it all wrong. It’s Nicola that needs care. A short intense training camp where there is only one lesson, the true value of the word ‘no’.
As with anything in life, if you want you can blame stranger danger, fast food, advertising on television or even the government for the fact your kids fat….but at the end of the day there is only one answer.
8 year olds don’t do the shopping and if there is nothing in the house they shouldn’t eat….chances are they will lose weight.
They might chuck a wobbly – it might last for weeks – but all that screaming and yelling burns calories…
