State Champion Athlete Called Fat
A ten-year old wrestler was sent a letter in the mail calling him fat. The awful part was that the state sent the letter. The jurisdiction of his health was based off of his BMI. The thing is though, is that this boy is a state wrestler champion. It is required by the schools in the state to gather data of students to calculate their BMI and if they aren't considered fit, the child will receive a letter in the mail saying so. As a defense, the state says they are trying to raise awareness in parents.
