"Fat shaming" in school now? One of my kids is 8. At her school (we live in France), there was a 'reduce your trash day'. A guy came to explain how to recycle & reduce your trash.  He showed the kids a short movie with a 'Mr. Garbage', who was huge and had to downsize through various means. One of the parents complained to the teacher that it was 'fat-shaming'. WTH? This is going too far.
