Despicable! If I were anywhere near Fargo, I'll have a few dozen ready to launch!

I feel this is a form of Bullying.

How does the woman know what health issues the child has, maybe they are on Meds that make them bloated, and their only joy is Halloween.

Horrible,

Should anybody really be eating candy anyway? Bad for your teeth, glucose levels and weight.

But I agree she shouldn't be giving notes to little kids.

Can't agree on the should we be eating candy bit (snicker) but this woman is the classic discriminator. Uneducated and ineffective.

When we talk about obese children, my heart just pours out to them. That was me 30 years ago. An adult has some audacity to make a child feel badly about their health/appearance, when in reality, it's the f'in parents who are being negligent.

I could remember as early as elementary school learning about healthy eating & need for regular exercise. But if that is not reinforced in the home and if it is not modeled by your parents, it's a lost cause. Multiply that with years of poor eating habits and you got a classic obese case. And than society turns around and says if you want to lose weight just stop eating, or eat less, or make better choices. That's like telling society hey if you want to get ahead learn to write with your left hand when you've been writing w/ your right all these years. Technically you can do it, but it doesn't come natural, there's little gratification and in the end it's just easier to write with your right hand.

Terrorizing kids is not addressing the epidemic. Education, reinforcement and accountability are the only measures that can address the matter. It's a cultural thing now in our society..being one of the heftiest countries in the world. Address society not a child.

it's the f'in parents who are being negligent.

As is so often the case in America. I swear you ought to have to pass a test to have children anymore.

Well, if we don't watch out, the government will begin to regulate that, too!!

As a NICU RN it's hard to endorse the concept.

However, I am also anti-government... which just means I need to buy and govern my own damn island and all will be right again

I saw a commercial for the Maury show a while back. This 29 year old woman had nine kids by nine different men. I am anti gov too mostly. But they created the welfare state and they need to fix it in my opinion.

I guess they should do away with Easter as well.

I just saw this and think it is awful. When my children were a little older they got to choose about 5 pieces of candy and then I took them to Toys R Us and they got a toy instead. The best one was I gave my sons pillow cases for their candy one year. My obese son's case had a hole on the seam and he blamed me that I did it on purpose because he lost most of his candy. It was funny to me but not to a 9 or 10 year old.

Happy Halloween to everyone.

I just saw this article posted on Facebook and I'll respond here the same way I did there:

If this woman gave a note like that to one of my kids (hypothetically, both my kids are skinny) I'd go back and knock the b*tch out. No joke.

Honestly though if she feels that way then why not just leave your lights off and don't give out candy at all. Nope, have to make a statement about it.

reading this doesnt make me happy..i guess because we live in the land of freedom of speech she has that right and i guess she is just enforcing her rights...being fat/obese is still looked at with disgust and it seems the world doesnt see that as anything other than one person not controlling themselves and being fat/lazy...until people see the inside of a person, all they will see is the outside and judge based on that...and as long as society views people like me as slobs, and its okay to make fun of people like me, it wont change...as for this lady, i hope she has a happy halloween and chokes on a piece of candy.

I wish the door to door part of this hoilday would stop it reallybothers my 7 yorkies Plus it isnt as safe as it use to be. I like it to stay in church and school party's and other closly supervised places...

As for this lady not worth our time she has her own issus

This woman apparently has no idea how devastatingly hurtful she is about to be. I hope she decides to simply keep her light off. Handing out notes will only do damage to everyone involved.

Can you imagine being the "skinny" kid going trick or treating with your "fat" friend...and you get candy, but she/he gets a note?? Once again creating divisiveness instead of compassion.

This woman will be bringing hell right to her doorstep if she proceeds.

She needs to keep her opinion (as she calls it) in her own home and off our children!
