U.S. program targets obesity at grassroots level

As if heretofore they have been targeting the treetop level and not the hoi-polloi.
"A new program developed by the U.S. government is tackling the obesity epidemic by helping "tween" girls and their parents make small but important changes to build a healthier lifestyle.

The Department of Health and Human Services' (HHS) Office on Women's Health launched BodyWorks in 2006 by training instructors in the hopes that they would bring the program home to their communities. All materials are provided free, but communities must find the resources to pay trainers and a place to offer the program."
No, the materials are not "provided free."

We are paying for them with our tax dollars.
"Richter is in the second year of offering the program at the Valley Children's Clinic in Renton, Washington, and has expanded it to two other centers in the region with funding from hospitals and a grant.

'What excites me as a practicing pediatrician is the fact that this is something I can offer to my patients which doesn't require any funding,' she said. 'There's no charge, you don't need insurance payments. All it requires is a commitment of time.'"
Richter is a moron.

There is no such thing as a free weight loss lunch, idiot.

We are all paying for it and likely paying for part of your income for these fat nutritionally abused children, one way or another.

Which, by the way, puts you in violation of CAPTA, assuming you have not fulfilled your mandated-by-law responsibility to report these kids to child and family services.

I'll bet that is a good assumption.

You are complicit in the child abuse, Richter.

Richter is also a lawbreaker.

Shame on her.
