I give it about 3-4 years before children who are overweight are taken from their parents arms by child protective services because their parents have been accused of abuse in allowing their children not to be healthy.
The first time I were to receive such a "cautionary" letter - the school would be receiving a letter from my attorney.

If they are already sending such letters home, it will be far less than 3-4 years, believe me.
The district I live in (in Virginia) has a "no nits" policy in regard to headlice. I know of 2 families, in just one school in the district, that were visited by child protective services last year because of excessive absences of their children from school because of the policy.
There have been no CPS visits so far this year for children attending that school...........I know this because my child is in the 2nd grade in that school and stay on top of the problem, because it is a problem in that particular school and 1 other elementary school in the district.
Boy, that's ONE state department you DON'T want at your door!!!
Too late. Already been done.
