Sixty years ago my mom got sent home with a letter from an officious school nurse claiming that she was suffering from “malnutrition”.
My red-haired Irish grandmother stormed her way into that school and gave them what-for. I don’t think they ever sent such a letter home with a child again.
Are you saying that your mother was NOT malnourished? Because then, you would be right to criticize the nurse's actions. But if your mother was indeed malnourished, then the nurse's actions were justified.
In the article posted here, it is quite clear that the school authorities were in the wrong, as demonstrated by the cited facts of the case. But in your anecdote, you cite no such supporting facts.
It would truly be a shame if the school had indeed suddenly discontinued sending home such letters, because some of the schoolchildren may in actuality have been malnourished.
