They start so early I live in a relatively small town, so my kid's school only goes up to 8th grade here (then they have to go to the next town over for high school). There is a girl in this school who is too fat for me to guess her age, but she is clearly no older than an 8th grader. She's probably about 5'2" and I can tell she weighs more than me. I am a 6' man, and this juvenile lard barge outweighs me! I'm not even super skinny or anything, in fact I could stand to drop 10 pounds. How do these young whales get to such a disgusting size so fast?
