Kid at 16.  Got the money for that shit going through her lip, but not enough to haul her ass to a gym or even around the block?

This is an extreme example of what will happen when we enable and support the bad habits of people.

It's also a term that is thrown around entirely too frequently by scrawny folks.  (Speaking from personal experience.)

It a doctors job to keep her from eating herself to death?

Strange, when I go to the doctor, if my weight is high, then talk to me about what I'm doing to lose weight.

I just finished nursing school, I must have missed the class on how we should help doctors make their patients gain weight.

What is the doctor supposed to do?

Follow her around 24/365 and tell her she shouldn't eat so much?

Maybe he should have drugged her, then did a gastric bypass while she was unconscious without her permission.

I am sure many people nagged her to lose weight, including her doctor. A doctor can only do so much, sadly in the end, it is her decision whether she wants to lose weight.

The doctor can refuse to treat her.

You're right.

She's a total retard who should be monitored her entire life because she's unfit.

We will see lots of people wanting to become doctors when they are told they can't earn a profit.   Why not make lawyers non-profit?  Why not every job?

Obviously Mr. Dodd does nothing actually important like being a doctor.

It must be nice to be meaningless and tell others how they have to act.

What makes you assume that she even went to a doctor?
