Not according to the ACA.

Do you view the roads as the same thing? Do you bitch about pot holes?

[ExCTCitizen]

What is the matter with these busybodies...?

The BMI chart was made for undernourished Asians.

5'6" and 160 lbs is Overweight.
5'9" and 170 lbs is Overweight.
6'0" and 190 lbs is Overweight.
6'3" and 200 lbs is Overweight.

Great...another lazy parent bitching about their handout not being what they wanted.

According to the BMI chart, at 6'8" and 250 lbs, Lebron James is on the high side of Overweight... the #1 basketball player in the world is closer to "OBESE" (270) than he is to "Normal Weight" (220).

"Who you callin' fat?"

[Teacher317]

Actually, “Normal” for 6’8” is 170-220... BronBron needs to get down to 195 to be in the middle of “Normal”. He’s 55 lbs over. SMH

Until we get rid of this socialist obomacrap a/k/a ACA, we are going to have to refuse, delay, deny, obstruct in any way we can any and all attempts by this socialist govt. to deny us our freedoms, our rights as parents. We KNOW what the left demands that we do. It will be up to US to devise ways to circumvent the left. Freedom fighters of WWII devised many ways to stop the enemy. This is NOT the time to say, “oh well, ACA says we can't do this or that. It IS time to devise ways to do otherwise. Didn't say it would be easy, or that we'll achieve our goals quickly, but instead of more talk, we need to be involved in more action.

Ill say. My daughter is a ballerina. All muscle very little fat. Wears a size 2. Last time she went to Dr (she is a full grown adult now) she was told her BMI was a bit high!!!!

I wish I could wear a size 2 and dance the way she does.... BMI breaks down on both ends of the scale. You have to use common sense.

[driftdiver]

LOL you just insist on demonstrating your ignorance and how big of an ass you are don’t you.

I raised two kids from gradeschool through high school in homeschool. One is in pre-med now and the other is close to starting college.

People pay taxes. Public schools are funded by taxes. Just like roads and too many other things.

[DungeonMaster]

Don’t let the government raise your kids.

[grania]

She's cute, healthy looking and doesn't have any more weight than a child needs for the next growth spurt. If I were her parent, I'd worry if she were any thinner.

Parents should be concerned that supposed educators have become legal perverts getting involved in issues that belong with the parents and health professionals.

[trisham]

She doesn’t look at all overweight to me.

[Gene Eric]

That’s a hilarious perspective.

[driftdiver]

Don’t make a fool of yourself.

[Orangedog]

Then what are you pissing and moaning about? If your kids aren’t in the government schools, why are you so worried about that welfare system?
