Quite right, and those parents could be extremely responsible parents who always try to encourage the child to eat apples or equally the child may have some medical problems that makes her overweight. I could well have been totally wrong about it but I'll bet I wasn't the only one thinking it.

I think the school probably handled it incorrectly but if she was teased about her weight after being weighed then I'll guess she was being teased before she was weighed at school already.
