Rant about weight, fat acceptance, obesity and health
#22
RE: Rant about weight, fat acceptance, obesity and health
A friend of mine has a teenage son with a terrible problem with anorexia. He has convinced himself all food is either contaminated, causes allergies, causes cancer, is 'bad' for him, or whatever. He has a specific concern with everything presented to him. He won't take vitamins (they're artificial), even distilled water can't be pure enough for him, he truly believes he is poisoning himself.

His parents were unaware of his conditions severity till the school intervened. At that point the kid looked like a concentration camp victim. He's been institutionalized and unfortunately, his mom has told me the prognosis is very poor. The kid is beyond reasoning with, and apparently has done so much damage to himself even if he lives he will be an invalid.
 The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.
