I suspect that you’re right, but dad shouldn’t punch Santa in the nose, dad should punch himself in the nose.

Santa is doing the kid a favor even though, yes, truth can hurt.

Take it form the fat kid, me, that emotional pain heals pretty quickly, and heart attacks and diabetes are the last thing in the world that you want.

Kid needs to go on a diet, get active and stay active for the rest of his life.

It was rude and mean to insult the child during an exercise of Christmas. I despise bullies like this.

By the time I was nine, I no longer believed in Santa and
would not have sat on his lap anyway. I don’t really think
I ever bought that hogwash anyway. Christmas has become too
hoggy of a holiday.:o(

“a rude Santa”

Yep, some of us get it.

I work with severely emotionally disturbed teens in a
residential Tx facility. Most of our kids have little
to no social skills and tend to lack filters of any
sort. Ive seen them get angry at larger sized staff
and really let the insults fly when all these adults
are trying to do is to provide the kids with some skills
that will serve them later. It’s not particularly
encouraging to me that so many FRiends support rude
behavior from a character who is supposed to be
spreading cheer.

If a 9 year old is extremely overweight, 'Santa' is doing him a favor. Is the kid inside playing video games 24/7?

Was 'Santa' Billy Bob Thorton?

His parents are enlightened individuals who realize that a young child has a right to decide on his eating habits, gender and anything else they can dream up.
