Woman to hand out 'obese letters' to overweight children on Halloween

Imagine going trick-or-treating for candy this Halloween and getting a critical letter in your candy bag. 

That’s what may be happening to some kids in North Dakota this year. One woman called into the Y94 radio station in Fargo this week to say she doesn’t plan to just give Halloween candy to all of the children who come to her door. 

She said she also plans to give a sealed letter to any overweight children who visit her, which the children are then supposed to give to their parents. In the letter, the woman plans to tell the parents that they are acting irresponsibly by sending their children out to seek candy when they are already overweight.

The letter, which Y94 says was emailed to them by the woman, reads in part:

“You [sic] child is, in my opinion, moderately obese and should not be consuming sugar and treats to the extent of some children this Halloween season.

My hope is that you will step up as a parent and ration candy this Halloween and not allow your child to continue these unhealthy eating habits.”

When asked by the hosts of the show why she didn’t give out toys or stickers instead of candy, the woman, who identified herself only as Cheryl, said she didn’t want to be the “mean lady” in the neighborhood. The woman also said that she doesn’t plan to deny candy to any of the children who visit her house.

“Well really, I just want to send a message to the parents of kids that are really overweight. It’s just, these kids, I can see them and they’re struggling to stay healthy and they want to play with the other kids, and I think it’s really irresponsible for parents to send them out looking for free candy just because all the other kids are doing it,” the woman said.

Corey “Zero” Schaffer, one of radio hosts who conducted the interview, said they plan to follow up with the woman to see if she carried out her plans.

“I’d love to have her back on Friday morning and see if she went through with giving those letters out,” Schaffer told FoxNews.com.

I'm sorry, but these obese children are ill....plain and simple.   

This woman is going to find fault in both the children and their parents for a disease they didn't choose to be afflicted with?

Awkward formalism combined with ghetto vernacular.  Talkin' American.  I do it.

Fargo.  The Simpel North.

I stay fat so I can't look down and see how small my penis is.

In a related story, a self righteous woman in North Dakota had her home egged and mailbox destroyed after handing out letters instead of snickers to little fat kids on halloween night.

Burning down a house is going a little overboard don't ya think!?

Fuck that lady and fuck anyone that agrees.  Halloween is a day that puts a smile on millions of kids faces.  Why the fuck would anyone want to take that away or ruin it for them?

halloween in the usa is kind off a dieting day for the kids.

all the other days in the year ,they get stuffed with shit foods around the clock, on halloween,they have to go for it(walking)and only get as much as the ppl are willing to give(instead of eating at home with fatso whale parents until they pass out from sugar shock).

its a positive thing.the lady is wrong,this is national diet and exercise day.

Not so much.  I've seen it where the mom drives down the street and the kids jump out of the car, ring the door, get some candy, get back in the car, the mom inches up the car slowly and they jump out again and they do this street after street.

Sounds like somebody's house is going to get egged.
