county social workers said his mother wasn't doing enough to control his weight.

Sounds like she was doing nothing.

That is an adult weight and he is only eight. Incredible.:illogical

Perhaps taking him away from his family is a bit drastic. Surely educating the family - mother in particular - might be an alternative?

90 kilos and wanting a snack, would take a bit of stopping.

1246073 2011-11-28 08:34:00 That Ozzie bird who does the ... "Where the bloody hell are ya" ... ad, has just put on 6Kgs and says she likes the fuller figure look ... she weighs in at 53Kgs dripping wet in that really nice bikini ... :D

As to the 90Kg 9 yr old ... some good Samaritan in the States will fork out for stomach stapling no doubt ... as to the mother, it doesn't actually say what sort of weight she is, what she does, or any other background, however, I think we could probably imagine because there's plenty of it going on in good old Godzone as well ...

Ah well ... time for another packet of green onion chips and a Speights ... :D
